Tottenham prepare for a return to action, as Antonio Conte‘s severely depleted side look to remain undefeated under the Italian’s tutelage. 

Conte’s unbeaten record is in serious jeopardy considering how many first-team players have been impacted by the Covid-19 outbreak. Picking Spurs’ starting 11 for the trip to Foxes is an incredibly difficult task, as those who tested positive for Covid-19 are unknown.

Conte confirmed he had 16 players at training on Wednesday, with two individuals returning from isolation. Which means Spurs probably have either 13 or 14 senior players available for the Leicester match from kickoff.

Giovani Lo Celso returns from the knee injury he suffered on international duty in November. Sergio Reguilon‘s fitness is also coming along, though it’s unlikely he’ll start. Both Reguilon and Lo Celso are expected to be available, but will most likely start on the bench and come on in the last 20 minutes or so if necessary.

With the lack of available information, it’s incredibly difficult to predict Tottenham’s starting 11, but here goes nothing.
