Timo Werner missed that game through illness too, though it remains unclear as to whether or not the German will feature.

"Timo was unwell yesterday, Udogie was out before the game and we hope they will be okay,” said Postecoglou at Friday’s pre-match press conference.

“The plan is Destiny will be okay."

Mikey Moore, however, is not yet ready to return after suffering with a virus.

“No, no. he hasn’t been involved [in training],” added the Spurs boss.

“We’ll need to get at least a couple of weeks’ training into Mikey.”

Micky van de Ven, Cristian Romero, Wilson Odobert, Ben Davies, Richarlison and Guglielmo Vicario are all expected to miss out.

Spurs host the Premier League leaders on Sunday afternoon, with Arne Slot’s side set to continue without defenders Conor Bradley and Ibrahima Konate.
