Emmanuel Adebayor will feature as a lone centre-forward for Tottenham Hotspur during their trip to West Ham United this evening.

The Togo international has been preferred to Clint Dempsey, while Hugo Lloris has returned in goal.

Like Spurs, West Ham will also begin the encounter with one striker in the form of Andy Carroll.

He will be supported by both Matt Jarvis and Joe Cole from wide positions.

West Ham: Jaaskelainen; Demel, Collins, Reid, O'Brien; O'Neil, Diame, Nolan; Cole, Carroll, Jarvis

Tottenham: Lloris; Walker, Dawson, Caulker, Vertonghen; Parker, Dembele; Lennon, Bale; Holtby; Adebayor
