Sebastien Bassong is likely to come in at centre-back for King, who has played in Spurs' last three matches despite the defender's ongoing problems with his right knee.
Goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes is struggling with a muscle strain and could miss out, while Vedran Corluka, Niko Kranjcar (both ankle), Jonathan Woodgate (groin) and Carlo Cudicini (wrist/pelvis) are still ruled out.
Kick-off is at 4pm.
Spurs (from): Gomes, Alnwick, Walker, Kaboul, Dawson, King, Bassong, Assou-Ekotto, Bale, Kaboul, Huddlestone, Palacios, Jenas, Bentley, Lennon, Modric, Rose, Livermore, Pavlyuchenko Gudjohnsen, Defoe, Crouch.
