Harry Kane is on the bench for Tottenham tonight as they face Sheffield United in the FA Cup.

January signing Pedro Porro makes his second Spurs start at right wing-back and comes in for the in-form Emerson Royal.

Ivan Perisic returns on the opposite flank after losing his place to Ben Davies for the Premier League wins over West Ham and Chelsea.

Davinson Sanchez starts in the back three alongside Davies and Eric Dier.

Oliver Skipp has played the last three games after barely featuring in the first half of the season so is rested for fellow youngster Pape Matar Sarr, particularly given Spurs’ shortage of options in midfield.

Up front, Stellini and Conte have opted for Lucas Moura with Heung-min Son and Richarlison. Stellini had hinted on Tuesday that Harry Kane will not be rested.

Tottenham XI: Forster; Dier, Sanchez, Davies; Porro, Sarr, Hojbjerg, Perisic; Lucas, Richarlison, Son.

Subs: Austin, Tanganga, Romero, Lenglet, Skipp, Devine, Kulusevski, Kane, Danjuma.
