Werner, Davies, Udogie - Tottenham injury news and return dates before Chelsea clash

Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham Hotspur's injury and suspension news ahead of Thursday's Premier League London derby with Chelsea.

Ending a two-game losing run will be the goal for Tottenham Hotspur when they head to West London to face capital rivals Chelsea in Thursday's Premier League fixture.

Ange Postecoglou's men came close to completing an exceptional fightback in Sunday's North London derby with Arsenal, but their second-half efforts were ultimately in vain in a painful 3-2 defeat.

As a result, the Lilywhites' Champions League hopes are now out of their own hands once more, as they occupy fifth place in the table with a seven-point gap to make up to Aston Villa, who have played two games more.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the contest with the Blues, who had done their visitors a favour on Saturday by fighting back to hold Villa to a 2-2 draw.

One of two fresh blows for Tottenham to contend with, Ben Davies picked up a calf issue in the loss to Arsenal, and the left-back has also been ruled out of Tottenham's final five fixtures.
