Tottenham returns from the international break with a trip to face Manchester United on Saturday, Oct. 10.
Spurs are rock bottom of the Premier League, with two draws and three defeats after their first five matches.
The pressure is piling up on Roberto De Zerbi, who has some injury headaches in the back line following the extended international break.
Micky van de Ven, Jan Paul van Hecke and Pedro Porro are all question marks after sustaining injuries during the FIFA window. The Dutch duo does appear to be trending in the right direction, however.
De Zerbi may have to turn to his bench to make up his defense, while further up the field, he could bench some disappointing early-season performers like Sandro Tonali or Rodrigo Bentancur.
Here is how
Tottenham could line up against Manchester United.
