Midfielder James Maddison could be out until the New Year with a serious ankle injury and Richarlison is recovering from minor groin surgery.
In spite of losing five players in the match against Chelsea, Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou believes he has more than enough to keep the team afloat.
Eric Dier, who hasn’t played much against Chelsea, and Ben Davies, who has hardly started, are expected to start after returning from injuries.
Postecoglou claims that the primary reason everyone has been working with the team is because a select few players will have the chance to make an impression on the manager about their performance when given the chance.
He spoke to reporters prior to the game this afternoon: “Look, we need to use caution when using Bentancur; it’s not just about Gio; it’s also about Bryan Gil. This is for him, Skippy, Eric Dier, and all of these guys.”
“Everything have been working out a lot because of this. They have been a part of the group and have trained with us.
“We have completed all of our tasks collaboratively. They have put in a lot of effort, and for everyone of them, the goal is to be ready for the moment when it arises.
It is fair to say that for some of them, the time has arrived. They have been preparing themselves for it since the first day, therefore it is now up to them to seize that chance.”
For the first time since a run of three home league victories over Spurs between 1964 and 1968, Wolves are looking to defeat Spurs twice in a row. Spurs, on the other hand, enjoyed the best start to a top-flight season since 1961, although they were defeated by Chelsea in that iconic Monday night match.
