Impact Bissouma conceded an obvious foul shortly after half time and will now miss Spurs' next match Wednesday against Crystal Palace. It's a tough blow for Tottenham, who are currently thin at midfield and will be hoping Rodrigo Bentancur (groin) is healthy enough to reclaim his starting role to help compensate for the suspension.
