Wolves v Tottenham preview

Football News Staff - 6 Mar 2011
Wolves will be without midfielder Jamie O’Hara for today’s visit of Tottenham to Molineux. (kick-off 16.00 GMT)

O’Hara is on loan from Spurs and is unable to face his parent club as part of their agreement, meaning Nenad Milijas could come into the starting XI.

Leg injuries mean David Edwards and David Jones are doubtful, but definitely absent are Steven Mouyokolo (knee) and Ronald Zubar (back).

However, manager Mick McCarthy could welcome back Stephen Hunt following an x injury.

Meanwhile, Tottenham are again without Rafael van der Vaart (calf), but Gareth Bale (back) looks set to be on the bench and could be given a run-out.

Jonathan Woodgate (groin), Younes Kaboul (knee) and Vedran Corluka (ankle) are all sidelined, but Ledley King could make his return from a groin injury to ease Harry Redknapp’s defensive worries.

Jermain Defoe is expected to feature despite his ankle scare during the club’s training camp in Dubai earlier this week.
