Spurs vs Spartak Moscow (UEFA Cup, Group D) 
Pavlyuchenko's former team-mates are in town to try to spoil Spurs progress to the next round.
Spurs just need a point to progress to the knockout stages of the competition but again they face the visiting Russians with a young line up. Pavlyuchenko would love to play but cannot as Corluka and him are cup-tied. Mr Bent is down with tonsilitis so this should be a sure start for Frazier Campbell. King will be kept for the weekend's clash, while Woodgate is having his sore back investigated. Jenas, Hutton and Giovani are still out injured unfortunately.
One consolation is that Spartak's last competitive game was a few weeks ago and their domestic league ended in November. So perhaps they will be a tad rusty and lack match fitness tonight. Nevertheless, Spurs should aim for the win and avoid any nasty injuries to key players as the EPL relegation fight continues this weekend at St. James Park.
COYS!!!
