Sunderland left-back Andrea Dossena has insisted that his side have a good opportunity to beat Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday afternoon.
Dossena said that if Sunderland can produce a similar performance to the one they managed in the 4-3 defeat to Chelsea then they should be able to win against Spurs.
"I see Saturday as a great chance for us," he told the club's official website. "Tottenham are a different side to Chelsea, obviously, and I think if we play like we did against Chelsea we can beat them.
"If we remain focused and keep the momentum going in our favour, there's no reason why we can't.
"The fans were right behind us and we could sense that on the pitch. They knew that we were playing with all our heart. It's important that they know this and it's important that we dig deep and give everything for the cause and for the fans."
Sunderland's game against Spurs kicks off at 5.30pm on Saturday.
