Preview: Tottenham Hotspur vs. Wigan Athletic

Tottenham vs. Wigan

Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp will turn his attentions from his ongoing tax evasion trial to a Premier League fixture with Wigan Athletic tomorrow evening.

Redknapp has a near fully-fit squad to choose from for the match, meaning that Emmanuel Adebayor may take the place of Jermain Defoe up front.

Spurs will head into the fixture looking to bounce back from their defeat at title rivals Manchester City last weekend.

Visiting Wigan are likely to be without Hugo Rodallega, who is reportedly nearing a transfer away from the club.

However, the recently-signed Jean Beausejour is expected to make his debut for Athletic.

Spurs struck nine past Wigan at White Hart Lane when the two sides met in 2009.

Current form:

Spurs: WDWWDL Wigan: DLDLLL

Possible lineups:

Spurs: Friedel; Walker, Dawson, King, Assou-Ekotto; Bale, Parker, Modric, Lennon; Van der Vaart; Adebayor.

Wigan: Al-Habsi; Gohouri, Caldwell, Boyce, Figueroa; Beausejour, Watson, Gomez, McCarthy, Crusat; Sammon.

Sports Mole says: 3-1
