Tottenham Hotspur play host to Stoke City with both sides on a good run of form.

Tottenham Hotspur host Stoke City on Saturday looking to establish their position in the top four of the Premier League.

Tottenham's last-minute defeat to Everton two weeks ago has been their only defeat from six, beating Swansea last weekend 1-0.

Stoke are unbeaten in six league games, with three wins and three draws, and have moved themselves up to ninth.

Spurs have no suspensions to contend with and indeed could see the return of both Michael Dawson and Gareth Bale.

Stoke remain without Michael Owen and Rory Delap for this fixture, but otherwise have a clean bill of health.
