Tottenham v Fulham


Tottenham v Fulham
White Hart Lane

Wednesday, 26 December

Kick-off: 1300 GMT


Tottenham's Ledley King could make a surprise return depending on a fitness test but Anthony Gardner, Gareth Bale and Didier Zokora are definitely out. Darren Bent (hip), Ricardo Rocha (thigh), and Jermaine Jenas (ankle) and Michael Dawson are all doubtful.
Fulham defender Elliot Omozusi is doubtful after limping out of the draw with Wigan after 60 minutes.
Meanwhile, Brian McBride and Jimmy Bullard are still sidelined with long-term knee injuries.

Tottenham (from): Robinson, Cerny, Chimbonda, Kaboul, King, Lee, Lennon, O'Hara, Jenas, Boateng, Malbranque, Huddlestone, Berbatov, Defoe, Tainio, Taarabt, Bent, Keane, Archibald-Henville.
Fulham (from): Niemi, Hughes, Baird, Konchesky, Bocanegra, Davies, Davis, Murphy, Bouazza, Dempsey, Kamara, Healy, Kuqi, Warner, Smertin, Ki-Hyeon.

Tottenham manager Juande Ramos on the defeat to Arsenal:"Robbie was upset about the penalty.
"The game was evenly balanced and we had that chance at 1-1. "But to concede a goal from a corner when all the players are in the penalty area isn't normal and that mistake cost us."
Fulham caretaker manager Ray Lewington:"All the games look hard on paper. "We will be playing against a quality side away from home and our away form is not good. "But we have got to win away from home sooner or later so we will go backed by the spirit we showed against Wigan."
