Tottenham Hotspur team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Leeds

Tottenham Hotspur will aim to get their Premier League top-four charge back on track when they take on Leeds United at Elland Road on Saturday lunchtime.

The Lilywhites' Champions League aspirations were dealt a huge blow in a 1-0 defeat to Burnley on Wednesday night, with Ben Mee heading home the only goal at Turf Moor.

A fourth defeat from five league games sees Spurs lie eighth in the table - seven points off the top four with two games in hand - and Antonio Conte admitted that the club would have to make "an assessment" on his future after Wednesday's loss.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with the Whites.
