Spurs v West Ham – how to watch, team news, key information
We’ll be without the services of Ryan Sessegnon for the game on Wednesday night.
The left wing-back produced an impressive performance from the start in Sunday’s Premier League draw with Liverpool, but was forced off in the latter stages.
Antonio Conte confirmed on Tuesday that Ryan picked up an injury and won’t be available to face the Hammers, with the England Under-21 international joining defender Cristian Romero on the sidelines.
In good news, the squad is now free of COVID-19 cases, giving Antonio a number of options to ponder.
As for West Ham, they’re reported to have “one or two” cases of COVID-19 in their squad, while Vladimír Coufal serves a one-match ban following his red card against Arsenal in the Premier League last week.
Also sidelined are Kurt Zouma (hamstring tendon), Angelo Ogbonna (knee) and Ryan Fredericks (groin), but full-backs Ben Johnson (hamstring) and Aaron Cresswell (back) are closing in on their respective returns.
