Tottenham hit by major injury ahead of Chelsea showdown

Tottenham have been hit by injury ahead of their derby clash with Chelsea.

Aaron Lennon suffered a hamstring pull in victory over Sunderland and will miss Thursday's London derby against top-four rivals Chelsea while Gareth Bale is a doubt for the game.

"Lennon felt the hamstring tear. He's got no chance for Thursday," Redknapp said.

"It'll be weeks, if it's a tear.

"We'll see about Bale. He's sprained his ankle. He just did it in training.

"There's every chance Defoe will be fit."
