    Wolfsberger v Tottenham (17:55 GMT)

    Tottenham Hotspur

    No Harry Kane in the Spurs squad today - even though he had been expected to feature.

    Spurs make six changes from their 3-0 defeat by Manchester City, with Gareth Bale, Dele Alli, Moussa Sissoko, Harry Winks, Matt Doherty and Toby Alderweireld coming in.

    Hugo Lloris starts in goal and not Joe Hart as had been predicted.

    Wolfsberger are pretty much at full strength, as they make two changes to their last Austrian Bundesliga line-up, with captain Michael Liendl and Christopher Wernitznig returning to midfield.

    Spurs XI: Lloris, Doherty, Alderweireld, Dier, Davies, Winks, Sissoko, Alli, Bale, Moura, Son.

    Wolfsberger XI: Kofler, Novak, Baumgartner, Lochoshvili, Scherzer, Sprangler, Taferner, Liendl, Wernitznig, Joveljic, Vizinger.

  2. David Silva & Januzaj face Unitedpublished at 17:05 Greenwich Mean Time 18 February 2021

    Real Sociedad v Manchester United (17:55 GMT)

    Manchester United

    Real Sociedad are at full strength, naming an unchanged side from the one which beat Getafe at the weekend.

    There are familiar faces galore in Manchester City legend David Silva, former United prospect Adnan Januzaj, ex-Arsenal defender Nacho Monreal and even a former Newcastle man in Mikel Merino.

    Manchester United make five changes from the side which drew with West Brom.
