Tottenham Hotspur endeavour to reignite their Premier League top-four charge when Nottingham Forest stop over in North London for Sunday's top-flight fixture.
The Lilywhites failed to cling onto a one-goal advantage against West Ham United in midweek, drawing 1-1 with their London rivals as Brennan Johnson's opener was cancelled out by Kurt Zouma.
However, with Aston Villa suffering a heavy loss at Manchester City the following evening, Ange Postecoglou's men are in charge of their Champions League destiny, sitting just two points below the Lions with a match in hand.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up Tottenham's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Forest, who boosted their survival chances with a brilliant 3-1 win over Fulham last time out.

After justifying his recall to the starting lineup against West Ham with the opening goal, Johnson had to be taken off at the end of the 90 with a slight knock, but Postecoglou does not think that the issue will be severe enough to rule him out of Sunday's match against his former club.
