How Tottenham Hotspur could line up against Wolverhampton Wanderers

Tottenham Hotspur head coach Antonio Conte will be forced to make at least one change to his starting lineup for Saturday's Premier League fixture against Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Cristian Romero suffered a muscle injury earlier this week and it is likely to keep the Argentina international on the sidelines for a number of weeks.

Barcelona loanee Clement Lenglet is expected to return to the squad after missing the 2-2 draw at Chelsea with an adductor injury.

However, the Frenchman is more suited to playing on the left-hand side of a back three, meaning that Davinson Sanchez should deputise for Romero.

The remainder of the starting lineup should remain the same providing that Conte does not decide to hand a first start of the campaign to Richarlison.

That appears unlikely due to the form of Dejan Kulusevski, but the Brazilian did make a positive impression off the substitutes' bench in last weekend's London derby.

Along with Romero, midfielder Oliver Skipp is expected to stay sidelined for Spurs as he continues his recovery from a hairline fracture to his heel.

Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup: Lloris; Sanchez, Dier, Davies; Emerson, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Sessegnon; Kulusevski, Kane, Son
