My colleague Tim Oscroft has just brought to me attention this sensational gift he once received at Christmas - Striker. Got to love the tagline 'players actually kick the ball'.

We'll have team news from Wembley in about an hour but Southampton will definitely be without striker Charlie Austin, who has been banned for three games for violent conduct.

Austin caught Huddersfield keeper Jonas Lossl in the face with his boot in Saturday's 1-1 Premier League draw.

The ban means Saints' leading scorer will miss games against Tottenham, Manchester United and Crystal Palace.

It's an early start for Tottenham and Southampton fans as we start the day with the Mauricio derby at Wembley.

Mauricio Pochettino's Spurs side entertains Mauricio Pellegrino's Southampon with the hosts looking to build on their impressive 3-0 win at Burnley at the weekend.

Harry Kane bagged a hat-trick that day, moving him level with Alan Shearer for the most goals scored in a calendar year (36). You've got to fancy his chances of breaking the record today.

They have scored 37 Premier League goals between them this year - but do Harry Kane, Romelu Lukaku and Sergio Aguero all make it into your team of 2017?

Or are you looking elsewhere, at the likes of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Gabriel Jesus, Alexis Sanchez and Mohamed Salah?

We've compiled a longlist of the players we think have been the star performers of 2017, and we want you to select a formation and squeeze them into a starting XI. A tough task for sure.

Head here to make your choices.

BBC Radio 5 live

Anyone who is a fan of football is sure to get a football-related present at Christmas - be it a new shirt, new boots or, back in the day, subbuteo.

But I'm sure you've also got some strange football-related presents at Christmas - one from Gran who knows you like the sport and picked up the first thing she saw in the supermarket that had anything to do with it.

I remember I once got Emlyn Hughes' Team Tactix from my nan. It was actually pretty fun to be fair.

Hello! And welcome along to our coverage of one of three best days on the football calendar.

Yep, Boxing Day, along with the opening day of the season and the final day, is one of those specials days for football fans that provides a Christmas Day-esque buzz.

Oh and on the socks thing, I am genuinely not grabbing at tired cliches. I got A LOT of socks for Christmas and have no room for them all in my sock drawer. Tis a Christmas conundrum for sure and made me glad to forget about it for a few hours and focus on a day packed full of football.

Speaking of which, here's what we've got on the menu:

12:30 GMT:

Tottenham v Southampton

15:00 GMT:

Bournemouth v West Ham

Chelsea v Brighton

Huddersfield v Stoke

Man Utd v Burnley

Watford v Leicester

West Brom v Everton

17:30 GMT:

Liverpool v Swansea

Had your fill of turkey? Can't face another game of Monopoly or getting splattered in the face by a splodge of cream? Trying to work out how to fit all those new socks in the draw? Then fear not because we have the perfect reason to forget all those shenanigans.

How does eight Premier League games tickle your fancy?
