The Brazilian midfielder - who has sat out the last 14 matches after picking up a calf injury in the defeat against Liverpool in December - played 60 minutes of an Under-21s game against Bolton last week.
Confirming the news of Sandro's return, Spurs boss Tim Sherwood said: "We have been very careful with Sandro. In the past, when's he been back too early, he's had niggles.
"We're hoping to have him ready. He will play some part but I don't know if he will play the full 90 minutes."
Etienne Capoue, who picked up an ankle injury at Norwich, and Danny Rose are out but Kyle Walker could return.
Meanwhile, Jermain Defoe, who will soon be joining Toronto, won't play either, but according to Sherwood, he will be at the ground to 'say his goodbyes'.
