He became a firm favourite at Wolves following his move from Bradford in 1995, playing 145 games before joining Southampton. He signed for Tottenham in 2001 for \u00a38.1m &#8211; a then-record fee for an uncapped English player &#8211; and made 81 appearances for the club before being forced to retire as he was suffering from dizzy spells and headaches. <\/p>\n<p>Richards&#8217; wife and two sons are due to attend Sunday&#8217;s game, and a representative from each of his four former clubs will hold aloft their team&#8217;s shirt in the centre circle prior to a minute&#8217;s applause before kick-off. <\/p>\n<p>The game itself is an opportunity for Wolves to climb out of the relegation zone, and for Tottenham to bolster their chances of a top-four finish and Champions League qualification. Spurs will be playing for the first time in 12 days since a 3-1 defeat at Blackpool, who Wolves thrashed 4-0 last weekend to move off the bottom. <\/p>\n<p><b>MATCH FACTS<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Head-to-head<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 This is the 80th league meeting between the clubs.
