Tottenham Hotspur have received a string of bad news as Mauricio Pochettino is set to miss out on three key players during Sunday’s clash against Crystal Palace.
Spurs will miss out on Toby Alderweireld, Victor Wanyama and Hugo Lloris. Wanyama is sidelined with a knee injury and is only taking part in fieldwork training. Alderweireld sustained a hamstring injury during the first half of the midweek clash vs Real Madrid and Lloris also picked up a groin strain in the very same match.
Spurs have also confirmed the non-participation of the trio through their official Twitter account.

Spurs will be looking to take their good performance from midweek into the game against Crystal Palace after the 1-0 defeat at the hands of fellow title rivals Man Utd last weekend. Palace, on the other hand, are bottom of the league table with just 4 points against their name.
