Sports Mole takes an in-depth look at how Tottenham Hotspur could line up for Sunday's Premier League London derby against Chelsea.

Tottenham Hotspur should remain without manager Antonio Conte and four players for the visit of Chelsea to North London on Saturday afternoon.

Ex-Blues boss Conte is unlikely to be back in time as he continues his disrupted recovery from gallbladder surgery, leaving Cristian Stellini in charge again as he seeks a fourth win from four games in interim charge.

Meanwhile, Hugo Lloris, Ryan Sessegnon, Yves Bissouma and Rodrigo Bentancur - who is now expected to be out until November after undergoing ACL surgery - make up Tottenham's injured quartet for this Premier League London derby.

Fraser Forster continues to hold the fort in goal while Lloris recovers from a knee injury, and Stellini should see no reason to alter the three-man backline of Eric Dier, Cristian Romero and Clement Lenglet.

Emerson Royal is also enjoying his best stint in a Tottenham shirt and should keep Pedro Porro out of the team, while Ben Davies could keep his spot at left-wing back after setting up the Brazilian's goal against West Ham United.

Oliver Skipp is likely to get the nod alongside Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in the middle of the park, and Stellini has a big call to make regarding Son Heung-min, who once again scored off the bench for the fourth time this season against West Ham.

However, the Spurs coach revealed that he was only on the bench due to a minor concern over his fitness, so the South Korean should return to the front three alongside Harry Kane and Dejan Kulusevski as the ineffective Richarlison drops out.

Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup: Forster; Romero, Dier, Lenglet; Emerson, Skipp, Hojbjerg, Davies; Kulusevski, Kane, Son
