Such is the protocol, the media are informed of the availability of the Spurs squad ahead of the clash against Igor Tudor’s side.
The north Londoners come into the fixture with a win under their belt following their last gasp victory at Bournemouth on Saturday, while Marseille threw away a 2-0 lead only to be held to a draw at Strasbourg.
Spurs will be looking to avoid defeat to book their place in the last sixteen of the competition and face the risk of a defeat combined with Eintracht Frankfurt or Sporting CP securing three points in the other Group D fixture, Conte’s side would have to settle for Europa League football.
Stellini revealed that Kulusevski, Richarlison, and Romero will all be absent for the match tomorrow night, but everyone else is available (Dan Kilpatrick).
Stellini says Kulusevski, Richarlison & Romero are all out tomorrow vs Marseille. "The other players are available."
