Robbie Keane, Adel Taarabt and Ricardo Rocha are also unavailable, as they were not registered for the competition.Redknapp is hopeful that captain Ledley King will have recovered from injury to lead the teamout in the Carling Cup final on the first of March, but can not play tonight.

If they are good enough they can stand on their own two feet and play at any level. Well find out.Lennon has a slight groin problem, I didnt want to risk Modric or Palacios weve got six games in such a short space of time and it makes it very difficult.The side is still full of experience Gomes, Chimbonda, Dawson, Huddlestone, Gunter, Jenas, Zokora, Bentley and Giovani dos Santos.
