Squad sheets: Tottenham Hotspur v Wigan Athletic

Fresh from their cruise past Young Boys into the Champions League proper, Spurs will be licking their lips at the prospect of reacquainting themselves with opponents they routed 9-1 last November, and the fact that Wigan have conceded 10 goals in two home games does not suggest their defending has improved. One consolation for Roberto Martínez and his players may be the groin operation awaiting Jermain Defoe, who scored five of Tottenham's nine. Then again Spurs will have others ready to help themselves. An ankle injury keeps Victor Moses out of Wigan's attack.
