Spurs, meanwhile, have won four of their last five games to change the mood around the club after a tough January, and will be rightly confident of reaching the FA Cup quarter-finals.

Sheffield United will pose Spurs plenty of problems but they certainly have bigger fish to fry with promotion to the Premier League a real possibility, so a weaker side could be picked. Either way, Spurs will make changes of their own and should still see their quality shine through.
