Van der Vaart poised to make Milan clash

TOTTENHAM hope to have Rafael Van der Vaart back for Wednesday’s AC Milan clash — as boss Harry Redknapp sensationally tipped bitter rivals Arsenal as the new Premier League title favourites.

Redknapp, whose team were held to a 3-3 draw by Wolves following Steven Fletcher’s late equaliser, is confident star man Van der Vaart will join Gareth Bale in being fit for the Champions League tie after seeing the Welsh wizard make his return from a six-week absence with a back injury as a sub at Molineux.

The Spurs boss said: “I’m hoping Rafael will be fit and there’s every chance Bale will start.”
