Tottenham return to Premier League action on Monday night when they face Coventry City at home. Spurs are still searching for their first win after six games, and there will be an expectation for them to get it here, playing at home against a newly-promoted team.

Coventry have won two of their first six games, and that includes a big home win over Newcastle United last time out. Here we round up the injury news surrounding Spurs and Coventry.

Aurele Amenda - Out

Lampard confirmed last week: "Aurele is working away. It's a sort of up to a three-month injury, so we're working through that."

Haji Wright - Out

Lampard said of Wright at the same time: "A little bit longer as well, but working hard and getting there... Hadji won't be back till into November, at best. I don't want to put pressure on because it's an awkward injury."

Josh Eccles - Out

Lampard said on Thursday ahead of this one: "Josh, not yet - he had a baby girl last week. He's got a little bit of an issue with his ankle - the calf is fine - so he's not on the training just yet. We hope so in the next 2-3 weeks to progress."

Luke Woolfenden - Out

Lampard added in his Thursday address: "And Woolfenden is a little bit longer than that (2-3 weeks)."

Xavi Simons - Out

Simons remains out until the new year due to a serious knee injury suffered last season.

Wilson Odobert - Out

Odobert is also working his way back from an ACL tear, and he is hoping to be back by December.

Rodrigo Bentancur - Out (Suspended)

Bentancur is out as he serves a red card suspension.

Pedro Porro - Doubt

De Zerbi says Porro's issue isn't serious. He will be a doubt here.

Mykhailo Mudryk - Out

Mudryk will be out until at least after the next international break. De Zerbi has said the winger is still 'many games' away.

Dejan Kulusevski - Doubt

It's hard to say when Kulusevski will return, but he is getting close, so we will keep him down as a doubt. De Zerbi said last week: "He is working well - tomorrow he comes with us, also Porro. I want all players tomorrow, tonight and tomorrow, but he is working very well. I think he is an example for everyone... how he reacted to the injury, the reaction to being unlucky, the character he showed this time, a reference for everyone."
