Tottenham skipper Ledley King is set to return to training after missing the last three games through injury.
King suffered a bruised foot against Aston Villa on Boxing Day and had been rested as a precaution.
However Spurs have not won in King's absence and the England international's return will come as a major boost to boss Martin Jol.
"I'll be back soon and it is improving quickly," said King. "It was building up gradually, just a feeling at the sole of my foot that wasn't right.
"It is something I have felt before and I knew what would happen next. I spoke to the physios, went for a scan and it was right that I rested when I did.
"I've been working in the gym with weights and on the bike and it has been all right.
"There are plenty of good games to be involved in and everyone in the squad wants to play. Competition for places is fierce, which is good and keeps everyone on their toes.
"There is a lot to look forward to at the moment and players who are out want to get back as soon as possible."
