Tottenham Hotspur team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Leicester City

Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for Tottenham Hotspur ahead of their Premier League clash with Leicester City.

Tottenham Hotspur have thrust themselves right back into the Premier League title race with a run of three consecutive top-flight victories.

Mauricio Pochettino's side remain third in the table, but they are keeping pace with Liverpool and Manchester City and even moved into second place temporarily with their 1-0 win over Newcastle United on Saturday.

Leicester City are next up for the North Londoners as Pochettino's side welcome the Foxes to Wembley on Sunday looking to keep the pressure on the leading pack.

Pochettino has had to deal with injuries to some key players in the meantime, but they do now have Son Heung-min back available from international duty.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest injury and suspension news for the title outsiders.
