One last throw of the dice for Tottenham and it is Dejan Kulusevski on for Timo Werner.

If Spurs do go out tonight, Ange Postecoglou will be facing questions why he left Kulusevski, James Maddison, Brennan Johnson and Son Heung-min all out of the starting 11.

The attempt to 'rest' players in September when they have only played four matches this season could be a very expensive mistake.

Brighton are 10 minutes ish away from the last 16, but Wolves are still pushing for an equaliser. They've been the better side since the break, although Brighton have just had a chance on the counter but a weak shot was easily dealt with by Jose Sa.

We've been saying they are knocking on the door, a goal must be coming and it's come through Thomas-Asante. It was a well-crafted goal down the left hand side and a lovely, clean strike into the bottom corner.

Spurs may have made those changes but it's made no difference to the performance at the moment. Fantastic from Coventry. Can they go on and win this tie?

Ange Postecoglou has seen enough. Here come the heavy hitters for Tottenham. Son Heung-min and James Maddison are on and off go Lucas Bergvall and Dominic Solanke.

Half hour for them to make the difference.

Tottenham's best moment by a long way. Ben Davies, moments after saving a certain goal, heads at goal from a corner and he gets some power on it too. In fact it's a brilliant reflex save from Coventry's Ben Wilson to parry it away.

That should be 2-2 as Wolves miss another great chance. Goncalo Guedes has scored once, and should have another. He is free 10 yards out and central but guides his effort just past the post.

Top-class defending from Jack Hinshelwood at Brighton and it has just been matched with some brilliance from Ben Davies to save Tottenham against Coventry.

Goalkeeper Fraser Forster makes a mess of an attempt to gather the ball from a long clearance. Jake Bidwell nods the ball past the advancing Forster, Haji Wright steers it goalwards, but Davies slides in to save a certain goal.

Tottenham on the ropes.

Wolves centimetres away from making it 2-2. A cross comes in from Nelson Semedo on the right, the ball bounces off both Brighton goalkeeper Jason Steele and then home defender Adam Webster, with it so, so close to being an own goal.

But from nowhere, Jack Hinshelwood produces arguably the best piece of defending of the night, coming in from the left to slide in and clear the ball off the goalline. Top-class defending from Hinshelwood.

Brandon Thomas-Asante is a real livewire for Coventry and gets the ball on his favoured left foot, but it is an excellent sliding challenge from Radu Dragusin of Spurs. The ball goes for a corner and Dominic Solanke does well to get his head to the delivery and clear the box.

Tottenham have to change something but it is not Son Heung-min, James Maddison or Dejan Kulusevski coming on just yet. Instead Ange Postecoglou makes a swap at left-back with Destiny Udogie off and Djed Spence on.

Wolves' Pablo Sarabia has to be careful. He's already on a yellow and makes a clumsy foul on Jakub Moder. He gets away with it and stays on.

Julio Enciso drags a low left-footed shot wide of the post for Brighton, who have come under a bit of pressure after they looked in complete control.

Can improving Wolves get back level from two down? Remember, we don't mess about with extra-time in this competition, straight to penalties if all square at 90 minutes.

We had varying qualities of shoot-out yesterday. Stoke only needed to score twice to beat Fleetwood 2-1 on penalties, Southampton edged out Everton 6-5 and Preston won an absolutely epic shoot-out 16-15, a shoot-out in which both keepers converted their efforts.

That Preston win by the way was a new League Cup record for most penalties scored in a shootout.

A penny for Postecoglou's thoughts...
