27'Spurs are banging their head against a Sunderland wall at the moment, with Pochettino's men not having any joy at all. Kane tries to wriggle free of Brown on the edge of the box, going down in the process, but the referee isn't interested in awarding a free kick.

23'Dembele gives away a scrappy foul in the centre of the park, with the Belgian shoving Johnson to the turf. The referee, however, opts to keep his cards in his pocket. The resulting free kick is lumped into the penalty box, but O'Shea is then penalised for physical jostling with Trippie

21'Spurs continue to patiently probe for a gap, but Sunderland have eight shirts on the edge of their penalty area. A diagonal ball searchs for Kane, but Jones and Pickford combine to defuse the situation for the visitors. The young goalkeeper has had an assured start to the action this afternoon.

19'Trippier is having no joy against Van Aanholt down the right-hand side, with Lamela only drifting into traffic while trying to give his wing-back time and space. Sunderland try to launch a quick attack directly from Pickford, but a lofted through ball aiming for Defoe is too heavy! Lloris picks up the scraps.

17'Cattermole hasn't ventured over the half-way line, save for one corner, as the Black Cats continue to opt for damage limitation tactics. Eriksen is found venturing down the left-hand side, with the Denmark international curling in a dangerous cross, but Brown steps in ahead of Kane to deny the English striker.

15'Defoe is looking very isolated, but the ex-Spurs man could strike at any given point. The Englishman will be high on confidence after a recent hat-trick, while Spurs' front line hasn't had a purple patch for a while. Pochettino's side are dominating, but the final ball hasn't been of high enough quality.

9'Lamela shifts the ball infield to Dembele, with the Belgian midfielder sliding a great pass in behind Johnson for Rose to chase. Against his former employers, the Englishman manages to win a corner, which Eriksen will take. The resulting set piece causes a few problems, but ends with Alli blasting wildly over the crossbar!

5'Spurs settle down with a neat spell of possession, with Dier dropping into a back three when the hosts have the ball. Rose and Trippier are pushing right on, but Graham and Lens are tracking their men diligently. Kane tries his luck from the edge of the box, but Pickford gets down brilliantly to his left to make a sprawling save!

Sunderland substitutes: Rodwell, Borini, Toivonen, Mannone, Fletcher, Kirchhoff, Watmore. Sunderland starting line-up (4-3-3): Pickford; Jones, Brown, O'Shea, Van Aanholt; Johnson, Cattermole, M'Vila; Graham, Defoe, Lens. Spurs substitutes: Son, Vorm, Chadli, Onomah, Wimmer, Carroll, Davies. Spurs starting line-up (4-2-3-1): Lloris; Trippier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Rose; Dier, Dembele; Lamela, Alli, Eriksen; Kane.

TEAM NEWS: Kieran Trippier holds his
place at right wing-back for the hosts, with
no other surprises in the Spurs back line.
Eric Dier will be able to drop in between his
central defenders, with Mousa Dembele
aided by Dele Alli and Christian Eriksen in
the midfield hub. Harry Kane starts up top,
with Erik Lamela also getting a start.
Mauricio Pochettino's men are winless in
three matches, after failing to beat
Leicester on two occasions during the last
fortnight, with Everton also taking a point
from the home side. Sunderland are merely
a point from safety, with a win today
putting plenty of pressure on struggling
Swansea.
