Sunderland entertain rock-bottom Portsmouth at the Stadium Of Light on Saturday and the hosts will want to add more misery to the south coast side.The Black Cats boast a fine home record this term, picking up 16 points from a possible 21 and only a defeat to Chelsea has blotted their HOGAN Shoes copy-book.Portsmouth have notched just three times in their seven away fixtures and with just four points collected away from Fratton Park, it looks a tough ask for them to claim any sort of favourable result on Wearside.Steve Bruce will want his side to add pressure on the sides above them as they sit in tenth place and, with Aston Villa and Manchester City fast approaching, the north-east side need a confidence booster.They have lost their last two games - both on the road - at Wigan Athletic and Fulham and their last win was an excellent 1-0 success at home to Arsenal on November 21.Avram Grant continues to try and stamp his authority on struggling Pompey and their 2-0 home success against Burnley last week lifted some of the gloom as they are now just four points from getting their heads above water.However, with three of their next four games after the LV Men Shoes weekend coming up against Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal, it could be a long and difficult Christmas with very little festive cheer.Club stalwart Linvoy Primus has announced his retirement from the game this week after failing to win a long battle with a knee injury to add a little more gloom to their plight.David James continues to struggle with a calf injury and Papa Bouba Diop could be out with a hamstring problem.Sunderland will be without goalkeeper Craig Gordon (broken arm) and Lee Cattermole (knee). John Mensah (calf) is nearing a return but the game could come too soon for the Ghanaian. Mauri Men Shoes High-flying Tottenham Hotspur will take on Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday and, on paper, this is a fixture they have to win.Harry Redknapp's boys will be wounded beasts after they let a two-goal lead slip at Everton on Sunday and there was still time for Premier League hot-shot Jermain Defoe to miss a vital spot-kick to win the game at the death.However, the north London outfit do not sit in fourth place for no reason.They remain undefeated in their last four league games, a run that included a 9-1 thumping of Wigan Athletic and, with Wolves locked in the relegation zone, they should be confident of inflicting further damage.Another win would Women's clothing cement their place in the top-four ahead of Aston Villa, who are breathing down their neck.Mick McCarthy's side will be buoyant after their win against Bolton Wanderers at the weekend but Spurs should be a completely different proposition at White Hart Lane.With talent in the form of Robbie Keane, Peter Crouch, Wilson Palacios, Niko Kranjcar, Jermaine Jenas and Aaron Lennon to help support 12-goal star Defoe, they should have too much for their Midlands opponents.The narrow 2-1 win against Bolton halted a miserable run for the Molineux-based club. They accumulated just three draws from the eight games prior to last weekend and that is certainly relegation form.Central defensive pair Jonathan Woodgate and Ledley King will still be missing for Spurs through groin and hamstring injuries respectively.Luka Modric's rehabilitation from his broken leg continues to gather pace while motorcycle crash victim Carlo Cudicini is out for the season.McCarthy's talismanic wide-man Michael Kightly continues to be sidelined by an ankle injury alongside Chris Iwelumo, who is struggling to overcome a broken foot.The unfortunate Matt Murray is gearing up for another long spell out with more knee problems while Ronald Zubar is missing with a thigh strain.
