Tottenham's Dawson ponders two important home games

After three successive away games Tottenham defender Michael Dawson is looking forward to playing at White Hart Lane again in the Europa League then the Premiership. Dawson hopes Spurs can progress by beating Dnipro in the second leg of their Europa League round tie before overcoming Cardiff City in Sunday's Premier League clash.

"The first leg in Dnipro was a big disappointment and we wanted to go to Norwich and put that right," Dawson told Tottenham's official website.

"We didn't do that, so we get another chance on Thursday back at the Lane, back in front of our fans and it's a big game.

"It's a competition we want to do well in so as disappointed as we are, we have to pick ourselves up.

"We know the fans will be right behind us and they deserve a big performance after the two defeats we've had.

"In football, you always get another chance and on Thursday, we've got that and then on Sunday at home to Cardiff.

"These are two huge games for us."
