Ferdinand set to face old club

Bolton striker Les Ferdinand looks set to face his former club Tottenham in the Carling Cup at the Reebok Stadium tomorrow.

Manager Sam Allardyce historically rings the changes when it comes to knock-out competition.

Former Spain and Real Madrid star Fernando Hierro could be in from the start for the third-round clash.

Portuguese striker Ricardo Vaz Te might also get a run-out after scoring twice for the reserves last night.

Provisional squad: Poole, Ben Haim, Cesar, Hierro, Barness, Shakes, Kaku, Fadiga, Giannakopoulos, Okocha, Nolan, Ferdinand, Davies, Pedersen, Diouf, Oakes, O’Brien, Vaz Te.
