Spurs vs Wolves Match Preview



Tottenham are still missing first choice defenders Ledley King and Jonathan Woodgate ahead of this visit by Mick McCarthy's Wolves side.

King suffered a knock in a reserve match in midweek, while Woodgate has yet to fully overcome a groin injury. Michael Dawson and Sebastien Bassong will continue in their place.

Midfielder Wilson Palacios suffered from bruised ribs in Spurs' 2-2 draw with Everton, but is expected to be fit enough to start for Harry Redknapp's side.

There are unlikely to be any changes to Spurs starting line-up, which means Robbie Keane will once again have to be content with a place on the bench.

It is possible that playmaker Luka Modric will be named among the substitutes as he continues his comeback from a broken leg.

For Mick McCarthy's Wolves, the injury to striker Andy Keogh, who has an ankle problem, is mitigated by the return to fitness of fellow forward Chris Iwelumo.

Iwelumo is likely to be a substitute, with Kevin Doyle and Sylvan Ebanks-Blake preferred in attack.

With Ronald Zubar still injured and Nenad Milijas keeping his place, McCarthy looks set to name an unchanged side for the match at White Hart Lane.
