Tamworth preview: Hoping to avoid a disaster

After eliminating Huddersfield and Burton to reach the third round of the FA Cup, Tamworth have seemingly come across the impossible obstacle in a form of a good Premier League team. Still, even reaching this stage is a big success for a team from National League, especially one that sits in the 16th place in the standings.

When it comes to team news, Ben Acquaye and Callum Cockerill-Mollett are out with injuries ahead of this match.

Predicted lineup: Singh (GK), Crompton, Libard, Hollis, Fairlamb, McGlinchey, Milnes, Tonks, Williams, Morrison & Creaney

Tottenham preview: Hoping for an easy job in the FA Cup

After four games without a win, Tottenham have managed to pull off an upset in the first leg of the EFL Cup semi-final and beat Liverpool 1-0, coming close to securing their place in the final. Meanwhile, Tottenham have struggled in the Premier League this season where they are currently 12th in the standings, so they'll at least hope for a good run in the other cup competition, the FA Cup.

Tottenham are bound to field a reserve team against Tamworth, but they are also struggling with many injuries, including Micky van de Ven, Ben Davies, Cristian Romero, Fraser Forster, Destiny Udogie, Rodrigo Bentacour, Wilson Odobert, Guglielmo Vicario, and Richarlison.

Predicted lineup: Kinsky (GK), Gray, Dorrington, Dragusin, Reguilon, Maddison, Sarr, Bergvall, Werner, Lankshear & Moore

Player to watch: James Maddison

With so many injuries at the club, Tottenham will have to field some of their first team players in this match and with Maddison not getting a lot of minutes in the Premier League lately, we can see him starting this game. If that happens, the talented midfielder should have a field day against an opponent from the National League.
