Tottenham Hotspur vs Bolton Wanderers Preview-Prediction Starting Line Up

The Starting Line Up Tottenham Hotspur vs Bolton Wanderers Preview.
This is the preview and starting line up prediction of Tottenham Hotspur vs Bolton Wanderers match. Michael Dawson returns to the squad after completing his suspension following the red card against Fulham in the FA Cup.

The England international should return at the heart of Harry Redknapp's defence alongside William Gallas, easing the club's crisis at the back.

Gareth Bale is doubtful and will have a late fitness test on a back injury that has kept him out of the side for the past week.

That's where the good news stops for Spurs as Younes Kaboul (knee), Luka Modric (appendicitis), Tom Huddlestone (ankle) and Steven Pienaar (concussion) are all still on the sidelines.

Club captain Ledley King was supposed to go under the surgeon's knife this week but due to a lost passport has had to reschedule the surgery in Germany for next week.

Possible starting XI: Gomes; Hutton, Gallas, Dawson, Assou-Ekotto; Van der Vaart, Jenas, Palacios, Lennon; Crouch, Defoe.

Bolton will look to rotate their squad after their tough game in midweek against Mick McCarthy's Wolves.

Lee Chung-Yong, who played his first game since returning from the Asian Cup in the win, could be rested after his exploits during the week.

Owen Coyle must decide whether to recall new signing David Wheater to the side after he was left out of the team that won 1-0 at Wolves.

The Trotters boss also has selection issues in attack and could hand new loan signing Daniel Sturridge his first start for the club after netting the winner as a second-half substitute in midweek.

Jlloyd Samuel is out of the squad and the only injury casualty for the club with a calf muscle strain.

Possible starting XI: Jaaskeleinan; Ricketts, Cahill, Wheater, Robinson; Lee, Holden, M Davies, Taylor; Elmander, K Davies.
