LENNON READY FOR SPURS RETURN

The England winger picked up the problem in the loss against Stoke a fortnight ago and was expected to be missing tomorrow, but manager Harry Redknapp today gave him a “50/50 chance” of featuring.

Playmaker Luka Modric is still recovering from a fractured fibula and is absent, while defender Sebastien Bassong’s hamstring injury will keep him sidelined for another couple of weeks.

Striker Jermain Defoe is available again after serving a three-match suspension.

Team (from): Gomes, Cudicini, Corluka, Hutton, Naughton, King, Dawson, Woodgate, Assou-Ekotto, Bale, Lennon, Bentley, Huddlestone, Jenas, Palacios, Kranjcar, Pavlyuchenko, Keane, Crouch, Defoe.
