Antonio Conte confirmed Spurs will be without three first-team players against Newcastle United on Sunday.
There were questions over Ben Davies’ fitness after the Welsh left-back returned early from the international break with a tight quadricep. However, the move was simply precautionary and he is expected to start against the Magpies.
Youngster Oliver Skipp is enjoying a breakout season in North London but has been out since January with a pelvis injury. Conte hoped to have the 21-year-old back but now says he, alongside teammate Ryan Sessegnon, will not feature until next week.
