With their Champions League hopes dwindling by the week, Tottenham Hotspur face a nerve-jangling trip to Liverpool for Sunday's Premier League showdown.
The Lilywhites were condemned to their third successive top-flight loss on Thursday evening, as Trevoh Chalobah and Nicolas Jackson's headers propelled Chelsea to a 2-0 London derby success.
Still fifth in the table amid their alarming slump, Tottenham have a seven-point gap to make up to Aston Villa and now have just the one game in hand on the Lions.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with the Reds, whose spot in the Champions League was confirmed thanks to Spurs' loss on Thursday night.
