Spurs are without a Premier League win in six matches and sit 15th in the table after an injury crisis left them with a decimated at the back, ruling out goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario, and defensive duo Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven.

Head coach Ange Postecoglou attributes Tottenham's poor form solely to injuries. He asserted that the club is "in a much better place in all areas" than when he took over in the summer of 2023. Spurs have dropped to 15th in the table following Sunday's defeat to Everton, winning just one of their last 10 league games.
