Tottenham Full XI and Bench

Tottenham will try and go to the 4-3-3 line-up that was effective earlier in the season.

From a substitute perspective, the options are limited both from the injuries and from the rules. Whereas the Premier League allows teams to name nine players to the bench and in Europe, there are 12, in the EFL Carabao Cup, teams are only allowed to name seven players to their bench.

This means likely at least one if not two senior players will be completely out of the squad and there will definitely not be three goalkeepers.

Likely substitutes available include Dele Alli, Harry Winks, Tanguy Ndombele, Hugo Lloris, Emerson Royal, Cristian Romero, and Sergio Reguilon.
