Fixture Focus - Spurs (27 February 2009)

Spurs vs Shakhtar Donetsk(Round of 32, 2nd Leg)

As stated in my post on the 1st leg of this fixture, Spurs did take a "come what may" attitude in the Ukraine and got beat 2 - 0.  After securing a 2 - 1 away victory at Hull's KC Stadium, the majority of the first team starters will be rested for this UEFA clash for the all important defense of the Carling Cup this coming Sunday against Manchester United.
 
The expected line up for Spurs is: Cudicini, Gunter, Chimbonda, Huddlestone, Dawson, Zokora, Parrett, Bostock, Bentley, Dos Santos, and Campbell.

I will be surprised if this team can overturn the two goal deficit and secure our progress in this competition.  And if they do, then the second stringers deserve all the accolades coming to them after the match.

COYS!!!
