Rangers vs Tottenham injury news as 8 ruled out and 4 doubts

Tottenham are back in action on Thursday night when they take on Rangers in the Europa League. As things stand, Spurs are goal difference below their Scottish opposition, who are sitting in the final automatic Round of 16 qualification spot.

Just two games remain after this one, so it’s an important three points for Ange Postecoglou’s men to pick up. In the meantime, we have rounded up the latest injury news surrounding both teams.

Tom Lawrence - Out

Lawrence is expected to miss out with a knock.

Neraysho Kasanwirjo - Out

Kasanwirjo is out with a knee injury and he is not expected to return until the new year.

Oscar Cortes - Doubt

Cortes is a doubt with a knock.

Rabbi Matondo - Doubt

Matondo is a doubt as he continues his bid to return. The Welshman has struggled all season with injury.

Gugliemo Vicario - Out

Vicario is out long-term, with Postecoglou saying: “It's not going to be weeks. It'll be months. With surgery, there are certain timelines. I don't like giving timelines so early in the process, as it puts undue pressure on the player... Once he starts getting [on the training pitch], we'll have a clearer idea.”

Richarlison - Out

Richarlison is out until the new year, with Postecoglou explaining: “Richarlison, hopefully, he'll be back in the New Year but, again, similar to Micky (van de Ven), we've got to be careful every step of the way.”

Brennan Johnson - Doubt

Johnson came off with illness last time out and will be a doubt here. Postecoglou explained: “Brennan just didn't feel well. He didn't feel well at half-time, but he wanted to give it a go. He just wasn't feeling 100 per cent, so I had to take him off.”

Mikey Moore - Doubt

Moore remains a doubt, due to return from a battle with illness, though it’s unclear when he will be back. Postecoglou has said: “We’re still taking it slowly with him; it’s still probably a couple of weeks before he’ll be ready to get properly back into it.”

Ben Davies - Out

Davies will miss this one with a hamstring injury.

Wilson Odobert - Out

Odobert is out long term with a thigh injury.

Cristian Romero - Out

Postecoglou says he is not sure of the extent of Romero’s injury, but there is speculation that the defender will miss six weeks.

Van de Ven has suffered a fresh setback, with Postecoglou saying: “It's the same side. Whether it's the same one, we've just got to get clarity on whether it's exactly the same spot or a new spot.”
