Bolton Wanderers will be without striker Johan Elmander, while Tottenham are likely to be missing Jermain Defoe, who has a broken hand.
Defoe is certain to miss the away trip to Bolton's Reebok Stadium and his place in the starting line-up is set to be taken by Peter Crouch, who will partner Robbie Keane in attack.
Doubtful for Spurs are striker Roman Pavyluchenko and centre back Ledley King, meaning Tom Huddlestone is likely to deputise again at centre half in tandem with Michael Dawson.
Jermaine Jenas will again continue in the centre of midfield with Wilson Palacios.
In the absence of Elmander, Bolton boss Gary Megson will start with Ivan Klasnic in attack alongside captain Kevin Davies.
Out for Wanderers are midfielder Sean Davis, who is sidelined for the season, and Joey O'Brien.
Lee Chung-Yong, scorer of the winning goal against Blackburn, is pushing for a start, but is likely to have to be content for a place on the bench.
