Tottenham winger Aaron Lennon is out of tomorrow's North London derby against Arsenal.

The Daily Mail says hopes had been raised that Lennon could make his first appearance since December after training last week. But the winger was forced to undergo another scan on his groin problem yesterday and will not play.

Harry Redknapp will also be without Niko Kranjcar, who picked up an ankle injury in the semi-final defeat to Portsmouth. Vedran Corluka could also miss out with an ankle injury which required an injection during the half-time break at Wembley. Skipper Ledley King could return, however, having been sidelined with a thigh injury since February.

Tottenham's injury problems have been compounded by the two-game suspension of Wilson Palacios, who picked up his 10th yellow card against Portsmouth.
