Tottenham host Manchester United in a meeting of two of the most underperforming teams in this season’s Premier League on Sunday (4.30pm GMT).
Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou was hopeful of having more players back from injury for the contest, while there was bad news for United counterpart Ruben Amorim when livewire Amad Diallo announced on Saturday that he would be out with an ankle injury.
United have not beaten Tottenham in their last five attempts, and the prize on offer for the winners is 12th place in the top flight.
