Sunderland visit the capital this weekend for their game with Tottenham Hotspurs.
Spurs have just started to play well under tutorage of Juande Ramos but hopefully their inconsistent form will reappear this Saturday.
Roy Keane`s men are on the back of some good form themselves, with recent wins against Portsmouth and Bolton.
Tottenham Hotspurs Team News:
Spurs only doubt is Dimitar Berbatov with him having flu earlier in the week. (Hope he is still out)
Tom Huddlestone available after serving his suspension.
Player to watch: Dimitar Berbatov
(If Playing) Spurs top scorer last season with 12 league goals. We will have to contain the Bulgarian if we are to get a result from Spurs
Sunderland Team News:
Ross Wallace, Danny Higginbotham, Grant Leadbitter and Carlos Edwards are out injured.
We are also without Dickson Etuhu who is at the African Cup of Nations.
Player to watch: Kenwyne Jones
Jones has been in great form lately if we are going to have any chance against Spurs he will have to be at his best.

Mate I don’t mind Sunderland and prefer em to Barcodes and Boro but you coming away from WHL with 3 points is very, very unlikely. Not impossible…but I can’t see you getting anything outta this one.
“Last 6 games – won 0, drawn 0, lost 6. I think we’ll pick up a win.” I suppose you Sunderland fans do need to have some optimism even if it is misplaced. And as for Roy Keane saying he wouldn’t swap Kenwyne Jones for Berba…
The losing streak at White hart lane has to finish sooner or later so why not today ?
You beat Pompey last week and that was impressive but I see a comfortable win for us, viva las Ramos
2-0 to spurs not too bad i supose as tottenham are going well recently with ramos but still you need soem points soon or you’ll be in trouble
Couldn’t see no other result than a spurs victory!
