To be played on Wednesday 5th April 2017 at 19:45. Venue: Liberty Stadium, Swansea

Odds: Swansea 15/4, Draw 14/5, Tottenham 8/11

Tottenham are on a four-match winning run in the Premier League and look set to close the gap with Chelsea with a win against Swansea on Wednesday night.

Chelsea’s defeat against Crystal Palace last weekend allowed Spurs to close down the gap to seven points. And there is another window of opportunity to reduce the gap, should Chelsea drop points against Manchester City.

Harry Kane has returned to light training, but the trip to Wales comes too soon for the England striker.

Victor Wanyama was forced off in the first half against Burnley with a back issue, and he will be assessed before the game.

Mauricio Pochettino usually sets his team in a 3-4-2-1 set up, but in case Wanyama misses out, he could revert to 4-2-3-1 with Moussa Sissoko replacing him.

Swansea are fighting for survival. A 0-0 draw in the last game against Middlesbrough means the Swans are without a win in their last three games.

Paul Clement’s side are just one point and one place above the relegation zone and faces a tough task against Spurs who have won nine of their last 10 meetings against them in all competitions.

Fernando Llorente is yet to recover from his ankle problems and could miss out here. Angel Rangel, Nathan Dyer and Leon Britton are all sidelined with injuries.

In a 4-3-3 set up, Jordan Ayew is likely to lead the line alongside Narsingh and Sigurdsson.
