Fixture Focus - Spurs (5 March 2009)

Spurs vs Middlesbrough

This will be a true test of the mental toughness of Spurs.  Are they going to come out fighting like they did against Man U over the weekend, or will they suffer from "penalty kicks losing" hangover?

Now that we have no other distractions apart from the EPL relegation fight, it is imperative that we start winning matches.  A week or so ago, playing Boro at home would be pretty much a cake walk.  But Boro has been in impressive form the last couple of games, capped with a nice win against Liverpool over the weekend. 

Spurs will have the services of all the cup-tied players tonight, with Keano raring to get his first goal after his transfer back recently.  With Palacios back in midfield, I think we stand a good chance of taking 3 points tonight if we keep Downing, Alves and Aliadiare in check.

COYS!!!
