Sunday delivers two Premier League tussles, with White Hart Lane providing the starting point as Spurs entertain the Swans in the early kick-off. West Ham’s visit to the Hawthorns rounds off the day as the Baggies look to recover from their recent slump which has seen them slip to three consecutive defeats. Our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open to grab your views on the events as the day unfolds and the bird roasts in the oven.
The team news from the Lane finds Gareth Bale absent as expected. His twanged hamstring keeps his sidelined: Clint Dempsey is likely to line up on the left flank, with Emmanuel Adeabayor in tandem with the in-form Jermain Defoe. The Spurs back four has been shuffled again, with Jan Vertonghen shifting alongside William Gallas and Kyle Naughton drafted in at left-back – Steven Caulker drops to the bench where he’s joined by the returning Scott Parker. The visitors recall Ashley Williams to their defence after he missed the midweeek Capital One Cup win through suspension. Angel Rangel is missing, however, he’s ruled out with a calf injury, opening the way for Dwight Tiendalli to earn a first Premier League start. Itay Shechter drops to the bench as Ki Sung-Yueng is drafted in, which means that Michu is back up front.
