Tottenham Hotspur need to quickly make amends after their FA Cup exit at Sheffield United with a trip to Wolverhampton Wanderers coming up less than 72 hours after.
Spurs will barely have had time to get the woeful fifth round showing out of their system before making the trip to Molineux on Saturday afternoon. With Liverpool closing in on the top four and Newcastle hoping to regain their spot in it, fourth-placed Tottenham must continue a run of form in the Premier League that has brought four wins from their past five matches.
We asked our Tottenham correspondents Alasdair Gold and Rob Guest to name the starting XI that they think Antonio Conte will select to face Julen Lopetegui's men.

The lack of time between fixtures is going to be play a part in who Conte is likely to select for the match at Molineux.
Harry Kane, Oliver Skipp, Clement Lenglet, Cristian Romero and Dejan Kulusevski should all be fresh while Emerson Royal is expected to have recovered from a knee issue in time for the game.
Then the rest of the team selection is about deciding which players deserve another chance. Ben Davies could move across to wing-back for Ivan Perisic with Lenglet taking the Welshman's spot in the back three.
Up front, a decision will have to be made between Son Heung-min and Richarlison, both of which struggled to make an impact in the FA Cup match, although Conte might go for a wildcard in the fresh legs of the underused Arnaut Danjuma.
Gold's team: Forster; Romero, Dier, Lenglet; Emerson, Hojbjerg, Skipp, Davies; Kulusevski, Kane, Son.

Conte and Stellini are going to have a very easy decision to make in terms of the Tottenham team to face Wolves as none of those who came into the XI at Sheffield United took their opportunity. The head coach should revert to the same back three that beat West Ham and Chelsea, thus seeing Cristian Romero, Eric Dier and Clement Lenglet partner up again.
That means Ben Davies continues in the left wing-back berth ahead of Ivan Perisic, with Emerson Royal, providing he is fit to play, coming in for Pedro Porro on the opposite flank. Oliver Skipp and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg then start again in midfield.
The reintroduction of Harry Kane and Dejan Kulusevski to the team is a must, although Conte and Stellini do have a big call to make over who starts on the left as both Richarlison and Son Heung-min had a terrible evening at Bramall Lane. It may be the Brazilian who gets the nod at Molineux as his hard work can help wear down the Wolves backline and then allow Son to come on and thrive later in the game.
Guest's team: Forster; Romero, Dier, Lenglet; Emerson, Hojbjerg, Skipp, Davies; Kulusevski, Kane, Richarlison.
