Tottenham are without key duo Cristian Romero and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg for their clash against Newcastle United at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday. Their absences leave Antonio Conte with a growing list of injuries at the club, all coming at a far-from-ideal time for the coach.
It could make the clash against the Magpies even trickier, given their start to the campaign so far. The visitors sit sixth in the Premier League, falling to defeat just once in 11 games played - earning four wins and six draws in their other matches so far.
Conte has already spoken about their threat for not only this season but those to come, saying ahead of the game: "You have to consider Newcastle for the present and for the future as a danger, as a dangerous team for the first position, for the Champions League position, for the fight to win trophies. For sure, Newcastle also needed a bit of time, but they have the potential to go into the market, and they did this also this summer and to become one of the best teams in England.
