Tottenham vs Stoke City Match Preview – Barclays Premier League

Tottenham take on Stoke City this Saturday at White Hart Lane at 15:00 GMT+0.  Both teams are enjoying a good run of form; Tottenham have won 5 of their last 7 matches while Stoke are unbeaten in 7 consecutive games.  Tottenham currently sit 4th in the Barclays Premier League and a win or a draw will move them up to 3rd with current 3rd place team Chelsea playing on Sunday at home to Aston Villa.  Stoke City currently sit 9th in the table and a win could see them jump to 7th depending on how other matches go around the country.

If Tottenham can win, they will have a great chance of snatching a champions league spot with winnable matches against Aston Villa, Sunderland and Reading to come over the Christmas period.  Stoke have a tough Christmas period ahead of them with games against Manchester City, Liverpool and Southampton to come.

Benoit Assou-Ekotto, Gareth Bale and Michael Dawson are all expected to return for Tottenham.  Stoke have very few injury worries; Michael Owen is said to have a 25% chance of playing as he is suffering with a hamstring injury.

With key players returning for Tottenham and given their recent run of form without these key players, bookmakers have priced this match up accordingly.

Current betting odds: Tottenham (8/13) Draw (11/4) Stoke (5/1).
