vs
Tottenham v Sevilla (agg 1-2)
Ch 22 - 2:45 am - (Live)
Tottenham have a 2-1 deficit to overcome in the return leg of their Uefa Cup quarter-final clash against Sevilla. Last Thursday's controversial defeat in Seville means Spurs must do it the hard way if they are to make it a perfect week for English teams in European action.
A controversial penalty converted by former Spurs striker Fredi Kanoute and a 36th minute winner from Alexander Kerzhakov saw Juande Ramos's team to victory but Robbie Keane's away goal after just two minutes may yet prove crucial.
Tottenham must decide whether to play centre-back Ledley King, who has been out since Christmas with a foot injury. With Anthony Gardner injured and Ricardo Rocha ineligible, boss Martin Jol may have to gamble on King. Robbie Keane, Dimitar Berbatov, Aaron Lennon and Didier Zokora all return after being rested at the weekend.
Sevilla goalkeeper Andres Palop has been ruled out with a calf injury so David Cobeno will deputise in goal. Luis Fabiano returns from his ban.
Tottenham : Robinson, Stalteri, Chimbonda, Dawson, Young-Pyo Lee, King, Lennon, Malbranque, Zokora, Jenas, Tainio, Ghaly, Keane, Berbatov, Cerny, Mido, Defoe, Taarabt, Ifil, C Lee.
Sevilla : Cobeno, Javi Varas, Hinkel, Daniel Alves, Navarro, Ocio, Escude, Dragutinovic, Puerta, David, Poulsen, Renato, Maresca, Marti, Jesus Navas, Adriano, Kanoute, Luis Fabiano, Kerzhakov.
