Tottenham Hotspur's flood of fixtures before the World Cup are set to give some members of Antonio Conte's squad a chance to impress him.
This international break ends with Spurs making the trip to their local rivals Arsenal this Saturday and it is the first of a run of 13 matches that need to be squeezed into around six weeks of the calendar before club football pauses for the winter World Cup in Qatar to be accommodated.
Conte will have to rotate his starting line-up constantly with a match arriving every three to four days in the Premier League, Champions League and Carabao Cup. That will provide opportunities for some of his lesser used players this season to catch his eye and here are five of them that we think will be pushing hard to do so.
