Tottenham host League One Doncaster in the Carabao Cup third round looking to avoid the sort of upset that Manchester United suffered against Grimsby Town in the last round and that Chelsea nearly did in their tie with Lincoln City.

Aside from a home defeat to Bournemouth, Spurs are on a reasonable run of form with the 2-2 draw with Brighton at the weekend feeling like a point gained after going two goals down early on.

Currently sitting in third place in the league and with Champions League football around the corner, it is unlikely that Thomas Frank will take too many risks against lower league opposition. Here’s how you can watch Spurs in action tonight as they attempt to lift a trophy that they haven’t won since 2008.

What time is Tottenham v Doncaster in the Carabao Cup

Spurs will host Doncaster at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium tonight, with kick-off due to get underway at 19.45 BST.

Tottenham injury news

There are no new injury concerns for Spurs with Frank continuing to go a good job with a lengthy list of names who he will be looking forward to getting back on the training pitch. Frank had to cope without eight players for the trip to face Brighton and four of those who remain sidelined long-term are Dejan Kulusevski, Radu Dragusin, James Maddison (all knee) and Yves Bissouma (knock).

"Everyone last time (who was involved against Brighton) is available again,” said Frank. “Ben (Davies) and Randal (Kolo Muani) will not be available for selection tomorrow. It's a minor injury for both of them, but it's just too short a turn around."

Frank did provide positive new on the fitness of defender Kota Takai and striker Dominic Solanke though, adding: "They are both progressing - both trained today with the team, so that's good."

The last time Tottenham played Doncaster

The last time the two sides met was in the same competition in the second round back in August 2009. As defending champions, Spurs started strongly and named the sort of team that suggested they were looking to retain their title. A 5-1 win included goals from Peter Crouch, Tom Huddlestone, David Bentley, Jamie O’Hara and Roman Pavlyuchenko with Carlo Cudicini, Vedran Corluka, Alan Hutton and Sebastian Bassong also in the starting XI.
