Expected starting XI to face Tranmere in the FA Cup

Tottenham Hotspur face a very different challenge tonight as they prepare to face Tranmere in the FA Cup third round.

Spurs will already be looking ahead to ties against Chelsea in the League cup semi final, Dortmund in the Champions League, and Man United in the Prem, but this is a hurdle they must first face.

Pochettino will rotate the squad heavily for this game, resting a number of key players ahead of Tottenham’s push for the title.

We expect Gazzaniga to take up the role between the sticks, as he has so well in the League Cup.

Ben Davies comes in for Danny Rose, and Walker-Peters for Trippier in the full back positions.

Foyth returns to partner Sanchez, with Alderweireld rested ahead of the next Premier League fixture.

Oliver Skipp earns a rare start next to Sissoko, with Alli and Sonny retaining their starting spots.

Lucas Moura and Fernando Llorente come in for Christian Eriksen and Harry Kane.
