Ground: White Hart Lane. Nickname: Spurs. Manager: David Pleat. Current position: 14th.

Top scorer: Robbie Keane - 14 (12 Premiership).

Last time out: Spurs 1 (Defoe 52 mins), Manchester City 1 (Anelka 25 mins).

How they lined up: Keller, Carr (Kelly 31), Doherty, Gardner, Taricco (Bunjevcevic 64), Davies, Redknapp, Brown, Poyet (Keane 73), Kanoute, Defoe. Subs: Ricketts, Hirschfeld.

Danger man: Jermain Defoe is living up to the potential that made him a rising star at West Ham and earned him a £7 million move across London as one of the few big money moves of the last transfer window. He has scored five goals in 10 Premiership appearances to add to the 15 he scored for the Hammers and has been getting in the starting line-up ahead of top scorer, Robbie Keane.

Last six Premiership: Manchester City (h) drew 1-1; Everton (a) lost 3-1; Chelsea (h) lost 1-0; Southampton (a) lost 1-0; Manchester Utd (a) lost 3-0; Newcastle (h) won 1-0.

Form guide: Spurs are a club in waiting - waiting for a new manager - and it shows, judging by their recent performances. One point from five games would be relegation form, had they not enjoyed a three-match winning run in January.

What they say: "I've had better Easters, that's for sure. The Everton game was tough but I thought the effort was there against City. At least we stemmed the run of defeats and can look forward to Bolton." - Spurs captain Jamie Redknapp.

Selection update: Stephen Carr is suspended and Mauricio Taricco is struggling with a calf problem after suffering a severe bout of cramp in Monday's draw with Manchester City. Ledley King and Darren Anderton are still sidelined but Dean Richards and OJ Mabizela are back in training.

Last season: Wanderers 1 (Okocha), Spurs 0.
