After beating Fulham on Saturday, Antonio Conte’s side are unbeaten in their opening six league matches and sit third in the table.

Now they’ll be hoping to maintain momentum in a switch of competition, but it won’t be easy as Marseille too are unbeaten in league matches this term.

Winning five and drawing one in Ligue 1, Les Olympiens have piled on the pressure for league leaders Paris Saint-Germain and are oozing with confidence.

Marseille top scorers Alexis Sanchez and Nuno Tavares - who have netted three each - are both ex-Arsenal players, so there could be a little extra on the line come game day.

Tottenham are expected to rotate from their win against Fulham somewhat as fixture congestion continues to take hold. Richarlison was one to impress and he could retain his place in the starting eleven.

Spurs saw the returns of Cristian Romero and Rodrigo Bentancur on Saturday meaning they now have just two injury concerns in Bryan Gil and Lucas Moura. Other than that, Conte has a fully fit squad to select from.
