Preview: Tottenham Hotspur vs. Swansea City

Tottenham vs. Swansea

Tottenham Hotspur and Swansea City meet on Sunday following their respective wins in the qualifying round of the Europa League.

In the league, Spurs started with three points as they beat Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park courtesy of a penalty from Roberto Soldado.

Swansea opened their season disappointingly, being overturned by Manchester United 4-1 at the Liberty Stadium.

Gareth Bale and Lewis Holtby remain out for Andre Villas-Boas, but he will otherwise have a strong squad to choose from.

For Swansea, Nathan Dyer is closing in on a return to fitness, but is not expected to make the squad for Sunday's clash.
