Antonio Conte is set to be without five of his Tottenham squad for Tuesday's Champions League Round of 16 game against AC Milan following a nightmare week in N17. Having the luxury of a fully-fit squad for their 1-0 win over Man City, Spurs have since been hit with a quadruple injury blow which has left Hugo Lloris, Yves Bissouma, Ryan Sessegnon and Rodrigo Bentancur on the sidelines.
Not only will Spurs be missing the quartet at the San Siro, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg will also be absent for the showdown against the Italian giants as he is serving a one-match ban in the Champions League. The Dane's suspension comes after picking up three bookings in Tottenham's six Group D fixtures.
Champions League rules stipulate that any player shown three yellow cards will have to sit out their next competition match. Yellow cards are then only wiped out after the completion of the quarter-finals.
