Tottenham Hotspur have confirmed that they will fulfil their Premier League fixture against Stoke City on Wednesday evening.

Doubts had been raised as to whether the match would go ahead after Bolton Wanderers midfielder Fabrice Muamba suffered a cardiac arrest on the White Hart Lane pitch during an FA Cup tie on Saturday evening.

However, Spurs manager Harry Redknapp has revealed that his squad are determined to "pull together" as a way of paying tribute to 23-year-old Muamba, who remains in a critical condition at the London Chest Hospital.

"What happened on Saturday to Fabrice Muamba was a shock to everyone," Redknapp told the club's official website. "It is possible that the effects of this could hit some quicker than others and despite these difficult circumstances we all have to pull together and carry on with our season.

"We will be providing players with whatever support they need in order to help them move on from what has happened, while obviously always keeping Fabrice at the forefront of our minds and willing him to make a recovery.

"Fortunately, we already had a cardiologist visiting the training ground today for routine screening, so we are able to offer any player who wishes to be tested for the purpose of reassurance an additional opportunity to be screened."

Bolton have already postponed their away fixture against Aston Villa that was due to take place tomorrow evening.
