Wolves have been handed a major boost ahead of the visit of Spurs on Saturday, as Ange Postecoglou will need to pick up the pieces of their chaotic 4-1 defeat against Chelsea.
Tottenham saw their unbeaten start to the Premier League season draw to an end in dramatic style, as they were knocked off top spot by reigning champions Manchester City.
Meanwhile, defender Micky Van de Ven and attacking midfielder James Maddison hobbled down the tunnel before the break. Postecoglou fears that Van de Ven’s hamstring injury could be a “significant” problem, while Maddison’s ankle issue will be assessed over the coming days. The pair have been crucial to Tottenham’s storming start under new boss Postecoglou.
Injuries and suspensions have decimated Spurs’ squad of late, which is already missing Ivan Perisic, Ryan Sessegnon and Manor Solomon. Ben Davies is also a doubt for the weekend, which could prompt Postecoglou to play Emerson Royal as an unorthodox centre-back alongside Eric Dier, as he was forced to do against Chelsea.
