Tottenham Hotspur vs Chelsea FC
(FA Cup Semi-Final)
A break from the Premier League fixture, this FA Cup semi-final sees 2 London clubs vying for their only remaining hope of clinching a domestic silverware.
After the disastrous defeat to Norwich at home and with some new injury concerns, our central defense partnership is likely to change again for this game with a possible Nelsen-Gallas combo. Parker and Lennon are likely to start, and with the latter coming back we would see another of those quick flanking attacks that saw us so successful early in the season. Up front I would say it will likely be a Adebayor - Van der Vaart pairing.
With Barcelona looming over the horizon, Di Matteo is caught between a rock and a hard place for his selection. Ivanovic is suspended, so we may see Paulo covering for him. The main concern will be the choice of the attacking players, and Chelsea has no shortage of them - Kalou, Drogba, Mata, Torres and Sturridge. Either 3 or 4 of them will start against us.
Our only hope of cup glory for this season. Let's make it count.
COYS!!!!!
