Gareth Bale has failed to recover from a hamstring problem in time for Tottenham Hotspur's home encounter with Swansea City this afternoon.
Without the Welsh international, coach Andre Villas-Boas has opted to deploy a 4-4-2 formation, with Jermain Defoe and Emmanuel Adebayor forming a striking partnership.
Meanwhile, Spanish attacker Michu will lead the line for visiting Swansea.
He will be supported by Nathan Dyer and Wayne Routledge from out on the wings.
Tottenham: Lloris; Walker, Gallas, Vertonghen, Naughton; Lennon, Sandro, Dembele, Dempsey; Adebayor, Defoe
Swansea: Tremmel; Tiendalli, Williams, Chico, Davies; Britton, De Guzman, Ki; Dyer, Michu, Routledge
