King, Parker return for Spurs

Tottenham Hotspur have welcomed the return of both Ledley King and Scott Parker for the FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea at Wembley.

The duo have proved their fitness to Harry Redknapp and William Gallas will partner King in defence against his former club. Carlo Cudicini continues his run in the team during this season's competition to take his place in goal for Spurs.

John Terry and Ashley Cole have both shaken off injury concerns to take their place in Chelsea's defence for the London derby.

Roberto Di Matteo has given Didier Drogba the responsibility to lead the line for his side ahead of Fernando Torres and Jose Bosingwa has replaced the suspended Branislav Ivanovic.

Tottenham Hotspur: Cudicini, Walker, Gallas, King, Assou-Ekotto, Lennon, Parker, Modric, Bale, van der Vaart, Adebayor

Chelsea: Cech, Bosingwa, Terry, Luiz, Cole, Mikel, Ramires, Lampard, Mata, Kalou, Drogba
