Tottenham Hotspur and Bolton Wanderers fight for a place in the semi-finals of the FA Cup this weekend.

Premier League duo Tottenham Hotspur and Bolton Wanderers go head to head for a spot in the FA Cup semi-finals this weekend.

Both sides are expected to field strong sides as the domestic trophy is the last piece of silverware on offer for the clubs.

Harry Redknapp is likely to start Louis Saha after he was put on the bench for Spurs' 1-0 defeat to Everton at the weekend.

Jermaine Defoe could miss out, despite a positive run in the cup for the 29-year-old, with Gareth Bale and Rafael van der Vaart starting in midfield.

Owen Coyle could go with Jussi Jaaskelainen in goal at White Hart Lane, with Arsenal loanee Ryo Miyaichi likely to start and Ivan Klasnic up front following his winning goal against Queens Park Rangers last weekend.

Current form:

Tottenham: WDLLWL
Bolton: LLWLLW

Possible lineups:

Tottenham: Friedel; Walker, King, Kaboul, Assou-Ekotto; Bale, Modric, Parker, Van der Vaart; Saha, Adebayor

Bolton: Jaaskelainen; Ricketts, Wheater, Ream, Steinsson; Reo-Coker, M Davies, Prately, Miyaichi; Eagles, Klasnic

Sports Mole says: 2-0
