We believe that Antonio Conte will make multiple changes to his normal XI in the cup, with Hugo Lloris being handed his first rest of the season and Fraser Forster getting his full debut.

Ben Davies, Eric Dier, and Davinson Sanchez make up a pretty strong back three, with Clement Lenglet handed a rest and Cristian Romero still unavailable.

In the wing-back positions, Ryan Sessegnon starts on the left again, while Matt Doherty comes back in to replace Emerson Royal on the right. There is still no start for young Djed Spence.

Oliver Skipp and Yves Bissouma line up in a much-changed midfield two, with Hojbjerg and Bentancur handed much-needed rests ahead of the weekend match against Leeds.

Up front, Ivan Perisic starts on the left and Bryan Gil is handed a chance on the right, while Harry Kane is still not afforded a rest as he leads the line.
