Huddlestone out for Spurs

Tottenham midfielder Tom Huddlestone has an ankle injury and will miss the FA Cup third-round clash against Wigan at White Hart Lane.

Skipper Ledley King will be rested, Benoit Assou-Ekotto is suspended and Jermaine Jenas (calf) is a doubt, but Giovani dos Santos (ankle) and Roman Pavlyuchenko (illness) have been back in training.

Full-back Alan Hutton (foot) is a long-term absentee.

Provisional squad: Gomes, Corluka, Dawson, Woodgate, Lennon, Zokora, Campbell, Jenas, Bentley, O’Hara, Modric, Bale, Bent, Cesar, Gunter, Taarabt, Obika, Rocha, Giovani, Boateng.
