Marseille
Marseille will have centre-back Samuel Gigot back for Tuesday's game after the 29-year-old missed out at the weekend through suspension, but Sead Kolasinac has likely done enough to hold his place in the backline.
Kolasinac is one of several Arsenal-linked men who need no added motivation to put Tottenham to the sword, with Alexis Sanchez, Guendouzi and Nuno Tavares all expected to be named in the first XI - the former should replace Bamba Dieng up top despite his goal against Strasbourg.
Pape Gueye is set to miss out, but Eric Bailly could be involved after returning to training from a thigh injury, and Tudor will likely recall Valentin Rongier to captain the side from the midfield.
Marseille possible starting lineup:
Lopez; Mbemba, Balerdi, Kolasinac; Clauss, Rongier, Veretout, Tavares; Guendouzi, Payet; Sanchez
Tottenham Hotspur
As mentioned, Tottenham attacker Richarlison is still out with a calf problem alongside Dejan Kulusevski and his troublesome hamstring issue, and Cristian Romero was another noteworthy absentee from the win over Bournemouth.
The Argentine centre-back was a "big risk" for the clash with Sporting according to Conte and is not available for Tuesday's game either, but returns to the XI should come for Bentancur, Eric Dier and Ivan Perisic.
A 3-5-2 setup failed to bear fruit at Bournemouth, so Conte can be expected to revert to a 3-4-3 here, in spite of his side only needing a draw. Bryan Gil's performance off the bench against Sporting was lauded, and rightly so, but Lucas Moura seemingly has a better chance of lining up from the first whistle.
Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup:
Lloris; Sanchez, Dier, Lenglet; Doherty, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Perisic; Lucas, Kane, Son
Prediction: Marseille 2-2 Tottenham Hotspur
