Pedro Porro available for Tottenham’s Oct. 24 trip to Chelsea after hamstring injury

Pedro Porro is available for Tottenham’s scheduled Oct. 24 trip to Chelsea after missing a month with a hamstring injury, USA TODAY’s Rob Usry reported. Porro sustained the injury in a 3-2 loss to Aston Villa on Sept. 19. Usry reported that Tottenham head coach Roberto De Zerbi confirmed Porro’s return Friday.

USA TODAY projects Porro to start at right wing-back, with Archie Gray the likely player to drop out. The Athletic FC reported on Oct. 23 that De Zerbi expected Porro back, but James Maddison and Dejan Kulusevski were doubts. USA TODAY’s predicted lineup includes Maddison, and its injury list names no questionable players. Neither pre-match account establishes the starting XI.

Usry also quoted De Zerbi saying Andy Robertson was available and that Marmoush and Dominic Solanke were “good.” The match was scheduled for 12:30 p.m. ET at Stamford Bridge, where The Athletic FC, citing Opta, said Tottenham had won just once in its previous 36 league visits.
