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.

48 MINS
Davies charges into the Millwall box and he does incredibly well to maintain possession through a sea of yellow shirts. He gets a sight at goal, but he fails to connect with the strike and it dribbles wide.
49 MINS
Eriksen goes for goal form the edge of the box, but once again it flies over the target. Had Spurs been more clinical in front of goal today, they could easily have a lead of five or six already.
52 MINS
Cooper sends the ball forward towards Gregory, but he is surrounded by Tottenham players and is unable to take the ball down. The Millwall forwards need to find an alternative approach.
54 MINS
GOAL
TOTTENHAM 3 - 0 MILLWALL
Son doubles his tally with a volley from close range, assisted by a remarkable over the top ball by Trippier. That's three high quality goals for the home side today and it looks although Millwall's unbeaten streak is coming to an end.
57 MINS
Yellow card: Craig is booked for kicking Alli in an attempted challenge.
59 MINS
Wallace narrowly misses the target from close range following some positive play from Onyedinma. It's their best chance of the game so far.
62 MINS
Spurs are in cruise control right now, with Davies finding Son inside of the area once again. He's hungry for his hat-trick, but he's missed out this time as he fires it way over the target.
65 MINS
Eriksen charges towards the Millwall box, but Craig chucks himself in front of the ball and blocks the attack.
