10 players could miss Tottenham vs Man Utd as Thomas Frank and Ruben Amorim sweat

Tottenham are set to face Manchester United at home this weekend, following a triumphant 4-0 victory over Copenhagen in the Champions League on Tuesday night. This comes after a disappointing 1-0 defeat to Chelsea last weekend. United, meanwhile, have been performing well, remaining unbeaten in their last four Premier League matches, including a 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest at the City Ground on Saturday afternoon.

Ruben Amorim's squad currently sit eighth in the league table. However, the two teams present starkly different injury reports. United are heading into Saturday's match with a relative clean bill of health, while Spurs are not so fortunate. Dominic Solanke, James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, Ben Davies, Radu Dragusin, Kota Takai and Archie Gray are all ruled out for Spurs. Lucas Bergvall is also questionable after suffering a concussion during the match against Chelsea.

As per The FA's guidelines, following an initial 24 to 48 hour period of 'relative rest', Bergvall will be permitted to gradually return to full daily activity. The 19-year-old midfielder can train, but only at a rate that does not worsen existing symptoms'.

The FA's 'Graduated return to play' (GRTP) programme could potentially sideline Bergvall for a minimum of 21 days. Additionally, the sporting body has an 'Enhanced care pathway' for players over the age of 18, which allows RTP after 12 days - or after seven days provided exceptional criteria are met.

However, there is a glimmer of hope for Spurs, as Mohamed Kudus, who was absent on Tuesday due to an injury, might be fit for this weekend's match. However, it's suggested that Tottenham boss Thomas Frank could face an anxious wait on the forward's fitness.

Meanwhile, for United, Lisandro Martinez returned to full training last week, but it remains uncertain if he will be included in Saturday's matchday squad.

Speaking on Thursday, Amorim confirmed he has no new injury worries. He stated: "No, there's no change [to what we are doing about injuries].

"It's one game every week and then a little bit of luck, because sometimes you have problems with players with knocks, it's not something that is soft tissues.

"So you never know what is going to happen in the next training. If you play with intensity in training, something can happen, but I think the big reason... of course, we try to do everything well, the big reason is [we have only] one game every week.

"You can give one extra day to the players that you know could struggle in the next training. I think that is the biggest reason."
