Tottenham Hotspur v Newcastle United (13:30)

Spurs midfielder Jermaine Jenas is unlikely to be fit to face his former club due to a hamstring problem, but Wilson Palacios is back from suspension to take his place. Striker Jermain Defoe is back in training, but this match may come too soon for him.

Newcastle are still set to be without striker Obafemi Martins, who phoned up to pull out of last week's match at Stoke on the day of the game with a groin strain. However, Mark Viduka is fit again after recovering from an Achilles injury, and could make the bench.

Manchester City v West Bromwich Albion

Shaun Wright-Phillips could recover from the ankle injury that ruled him out of Thursday's UEFA Cup game against Hamburg. Nigel de Jong, cup-tied for the 2-1 win over his former side, is also expected to return. Richard Dunne's red card in that match only applies to Europe, so the club captain is available. Craig Bellamy and Benjani are still sidelined.

West Brom boss Tony Mowbray is likely to name the same team that drew 2-2 at Portsmouth last week. Defensive trio Leon Barnett, Neil Clement and Shelton Martis, as well as forwards Roman Bednar and Ishmael miller, are all out.
