Spurs look to ground Swans

Swansea City travel to White Hart Lane on Sunday to take on Tottenham Hotspur, who are looking to go level on points with third placed Arsenal.

A win by three or more goals would see Spurs leapfrog their rivals in the table, in what could be their first victory in six Premier League encounters.

Manager Harry Redknapp welcomes back Aaron Lennon from a hamstring injury he picked up in the 3-1 FA Cup win over Stevenage earlier this month.

Meanwhile, Redknapp confirmed that there were no additional injury problems picked up in the midweek 3-0 win over Bolton Wanderers.

“We’re pretty much okay after Tuesday night,” he said. “We haven’t too many more problems, most came through that game okay, so we’re fine.”

Michael Dawson (ankle and knee) and Tom Huddlestone (ankle) both remain sidelined while Ledley King is expected to miss out after playing the full 90 minutes during the game against Bolton on Tuesday night.

For Swansea, on-loan defender Steven Caulker is ineligible for the encounter in North London due to Premier League rules about players playing against their parent clubs.

Possible starting XI:

Friedel; Walker, Kaboul, Gallas, Assou-Ekotto; Lennon, Parker, Modric, Bale; Van der Vaart, Adebayor
