Tottenham will have to come back from a goal down if they are to progress to the next stage of the Europa League tonight.

They go into the second leg of their last-32 clash with Dnipro, having lost the first-leg 1 - 0.

Striker Jermaine Defoe has been ruled out of the game through injury but the England international will make an appearance at half-time at White Hart Lane in order to bid farewell to the Tottenham fans before his departure to MLS franchise Toronto FC.

Head coach Tim Sherwood chose to rest a number of first team regulars for the away match but has claimed it is a "competition we want to do well in."

Kick-off is at five past 8.05pm.

In tonight's other match involving a Premier League, Swansea will travel to face Italian side Napoli, with their last-32 fixture still tied 0 - 0.

Jonjo Shelvey and Michu are definitely ruled out for Gary Monk's team.

That match kicks off at 6pm.
