When is it?
Kick-off is 2.00pm on Sunday, 12 March, at White Hart Lane.
Where can I watch it?
BBC One will be broadcasting the game. Coverage starts at 1.30pm.
It’s a big game for…
Tony Craig. For Craig and the Millwall backline as a whole, Sunday’s game poses a big test. The Lions are the only team in the top four leagues who have yet to lose a game this calendar year. To add to that, they’ve only conceded two goals in their last 13 games. But with players like Harry Kane and Dele Alli on the prowl, it’s likely their impressive 2017 record could be about to come to an end.
Best stat…
Tottenham have never lost at home to Millwall, winning 12 and drawing two of their 14 meetings.
Player to watch…
Harry Kane. With eight goals to his name from Tottenham’s last four games, as well as the February Player of the Month award, Kane currently looks unstoppable. The England international was deadly against Stoke, clinching an impressive hat-trick at home, and helped fired Spurs to an important victory over Everton with a brace. If his last FA Cup appearance is anything to go by, Millwall’s defence should be in for a torrid afternoon of football.

7 MINS
Son charges into the Millwall area and goes for goal from a tight angle. King goes to ground and saves the strike. The visiting keeper has already made a handful of important saves, just seven minutes into the fixture.
8 MINS
Kane will not be playing on. It's a horrible start for the Spurs fans.
11 MINS
Morison charges up the field, leading a Millwall counter attack. His burst of pace initially looks promising, but Vertonghen comes in to dispossess the 33-year-old.
14 MINS
Eriksen delivers a corner towards the near post, but Morison manages to come out on top and head the ball out for another corner kick.
The Danish midfielder standing over a set piece is enough to make any goalkeeper quake in their boots.
15 MINS
Trippier sends a tantalising diagonal ball over the top to Alli, who beats King to possession. However, the connection is weak and he fails to find the target.
18 MINS
Gregory opens the Spurs defence with a ball up to Morison, who pulls it back to Williams. However, the 30-year-old's delivery into the box is easily collected by Vorm.
20 MINS
Wanyama gives away a free kick in a dangerous position after a late challenge on Thompson.
21 MINS
Williams finds Morison with the set piece, but his headed attempt is deflected out for a corner kick.
23 MINS
Eriksen sends a cross into the box and it falls to the feet of Alli, who gets pulled to the ground by Craig. Millwall are very lucky to have not been penalised there.
