Tottenham Hotspur striker Jermain Defoe has declared that he is looking forward to face Leeds United in the FA Cup this afternoon.
Defoe returns to Elland Road today for the first time since scoring a hat-trick in a fourth-round replay three years ago.
The Spurs forward believes that the cup is an achievable target for Spurs this season and reveals that he relishes the chance to play in the competition.
He told the Daily Star: "I love these games. It's the FA Cup, it's special. I always look forward to FA Cup games, home or away. It will be a big day and going to Leeds, that will be something special as well.
"I've always enjoyed playing there, it's a fantastic, traditional stadium. It was an unbelievable atmosphere and to go there, win and score a hat-trick, I'll never forget that. It was the best feeling.
"Elland Road will be rocking and if we're not at the races, we'll come unstuck. We have to be professional, do the job and try to get through to the next round."
The 30-year-old has scored 14 times for Spurs in all competitions this season.
