Some assistance with Demon Lords of the abyss and their lore, if you please

DMing

I’m writing a campaign right now, akin to that of the baldurs gate 3 game with the dead 3.
Of course it’s different but one thing I wanted to use was the trope introduced by baldurs gate 3 was that if an evil trio.
I’d like to do the same with demon lords of the abyss, but my knowledge on which ones exactly would be ambitious enough to attempt a takeover of the material plain, I do not know…
I’ve already chosen Yeenoghu as one of the three for lore reasons (a player character is cursed with infinite hunger, like that of a gnolls)
So, I ask what other two demon lords would fit the following criteria;
• Ambitious enough to attempt a takeover of the material plain
• willing to team up with Yeenoghu
• smart enough to work with others

Any and all help with this is greatly appreciated, I simply want to hear others inputs.
Many thanks!
