The Story in 60 Seconds

Tottenham Hotspur head coach Roberto De Zerbi has confirmed that winger Savio and midfielder Lucas Bergvall are sidelined with injuries ahead of Monday's Premier League match against Coventry City. To address Savio's absence, writer Saad Syed outlines three potential starting lineups for Spurs. Dejan Kulusevski is set to return to the squad after over 500 days out.

Syed suggests De Zerbi could largely stick with the side that drew 1-1 with Manchester United, inserting Omar Marmoush and Mateus Fernandes. Other alternatives proposed by the writer include starting Mathys Tel on the left wing following strong international form, potentially introducing James Maddison in midfield, or deploying Marmoush as the central striker instead of Dominic Solanke.
