Tampa Bay Buccaneers v New Orleans Saints

The New Orleans Saints will have revenge on their minds when they host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 8 on Sunday.

This will be the first meeting between the two sides since their NFC Divisional round battle earlier in the year when the Buccaneers emerged victorious. It was Drew Brees' last game in the NFL.

The Buccaneers sit pretty at 6-1 and atop the NFC South, while the Saints, who are 4-2, are part of the chasing pack. A victory is imperative for the Saints as they cannot afford to drop another game in the race for the division title.

But will the Saints and Buccaneers have their entire roster available and ready to play tomorrow? Check out the injury report and starting lineup:
