Reading welcome Tottenham Hotspur to the Madejski Stadium for today's only Premier League match. Kick-off is at 4pm and the match will be screened live on Sky Sports UK television. Here's the team news ahead of the game... Reading boss Brian McDermott is without only Jason Roberts for today's game. The forward is missing with a calf injury. The rest of Reading's international players all returned from the international break unscathed. Jimmy Kebe is also back in the squad after the Mali winger returned to training last week following the hamstring injury that has kept him out of the season so far. Goalkeeper Adam Federici has been declared fit ahead of the game after a small doubt over his fitness last week. For Andre Villas-Boas' Spurs, veteran goalkeeper Brad Friedel is expected to keep his place in the side despite the recent acquisition of French captain Hugo Lloris. The Tottenham boss even admitted in the pre-match build-up that the French number 1 may not even make the bench today as he has only trained with his new team-mates once signing joining on Deadline day and then swiftly leaving for the international break. Clint Dempsey is expected to make his debut for Spurs, though Younes Kaboul (knee), Scott Parker (achilles) and Heurelho Gomes (ankle) are all ruled out.

Line-ups from;

Reading (from): Federici, Taylor, Gunter, Cummings, Gorkss, Pearce, Mariappa, Shorey, Harte, McAnuff, Guthrie, Leigertwood, Tabb, Kebe, McCleary, Pogrebnyak, Le Fondre, Hunt, Robson-Kanu, Church, McCarthy. Tottenham (from): Lloris, Friedel, Cudicini, Gallas, Dawson, Walker, Assou-Ekotto, Vertonghen, Caulker, Naughton, Bale, Lennon, Livermore, Sandro, Jenas, Dembele, Dempsey, Sigurdsson, Carroll, Townsend, Defoe, Adebayor. source - teamtalk
