Match Preview
Spurs v Braga preview
By Alex Dunn




Tottenham's form of late has been befitting of a side gunning for European silverware, but the depth of Martin Jol's squad is sure to be tested by Braga in a Uefa Cup second leg clash at White Hart Lane.

A 3-2 advantage garnered from an impressive display in Portugal has put Tottenham in pole position to claim a quarter-final spot, but injury to Anthony Gardner has exacerbated a defensive headache that is threatening to become a migraine.

The big defender has suffered a hairline fracture to his fibula and with Ledley King still no closer to a return and Ricardo Rocha ineligible, Michael Dawson will be partnered by a novice at centre-half.

Didier Zokora, who has shown some of his best form of late, has been mooted as a possible contender but it is more likely Jol will ask Pascal Chimbonda to move inside from right-back.

Spurs' defensive ranks are also depleted by the absence of Benoit Assou-Ekotto and perhaps more critically Paul Robinson, whose thigh complaint means Radek Cerny will have further opportunity to impress.

Jol has, though, been handed brighter news in the return from injury of the influential Robbie Keane, and the Irishman could come in for Dimitar Berbatov, to partner Jermain Defoe, as the classy Bulgarian is carrying a niggling groin strain.

It is not just the home side though that have injury problems to contend with, as Braga travel without a troika of their top names, with injuries depriving the Portuguese of Diego, Vandinho and Pedro Costa.

On the flip side, full-backs Carlos Fernandes and Luis Filipe are ready to return, as is experienced striker Joao Pinto - who sat out a weekend 0-0 stalemate with Beira Mar.

Tottenham will be confident of progression but with key names absent from their backline, Jol will be urging caution against complacency in North London.
