Swansea City vs. Tottenham Hotspur: Preview and TV schedule

Spurs will look to record their fourth consecutive Premier League win away at struggling Swansea on Sunday.

Swansea City have struggled for success recently, with Michael Laudrup's side now winless in their last seven Premier League matches. Though they've got a squad which should be comfortably too good to go down, the Jacks have fallen to within three points of the bottom three, and are understandably starting to get a little twitchy.

They'll find it difficult to turn their fortunes this weekend, as they welcome Tottenham Hotspur to the Liberty Stadium. Tim Sherwood's side may look a little flimsy, but they've still notched up three consecutive league wins and moved to within a couple of points of the Champions League spots.

Adding to Swansea's woes is a lengthy injury list, with three first-team regulars unavailable in José Cañas, Jonathan de Guzmán and Michu. Pablo Hernández and Nathan Dyer will also likely miss out, while Roland Lamah and Dwight Tiendalli are both in doubt. For Spurs, Jan Vertonghen, Younes Kaboul and Paulinho are all definitely unavailable.

Swansea City injuries and suspensions

Out: José Cañas (ankle), Jonathan de Guzmán (calf), Michu (ankle). In doubt: Pablo Hernández (hamstring), Nathan Dyer (ankle), Michel Vorm (knee), Roland Lamah (abductor), Dwight Tiendalli (hamstring).
