Spurs will field weakened team against West Ham

Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino has confirmed that both Mousa Dembele and Danny Rose will return to the squad to face West Ham tonight at Wembley, with Rose pushing for his first start of the season in the left-back position.

Michel Vorm will start instead of Hugo Lloris in goal, while Harry Kane will be rested, meaning Fernando Llorente is likely to play up front. Pochettino told the press conference yesterday:“We are resting players who need to rest because we don’t want to take risk, then all players we believe that are no risk to play tomorrow are going to play, we forced to give some rest to some players but we are going to play with players who are fresh to compete tomorrow because we want to go to the next (level) of the Carabao Cup”

Potential Spurs starting XI:  Vorm; Walker-Peters, Foyth, Sanchez, Rose; Winks, Dier; Sissoko, Dele, Nkoudou; Llorente
