Tottenham Hotspur team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Sheffield United

Spurs injury, suspension list vs. Sheff Utd

Tottenham Hotspur will be looking to claim their third successive victory when they travel to Bramall Lane to face Sheffield United in the fifth round of the FA Cup on Wednesday.

Despite the absence of head coach Antonio Conte, who continues his recovery from gallbladder surgery, Cristian Stellini has led Spurs to back-to-back 2-0 home wins in the Premier League over London rivals West Ham United and Chelsea, beating the latter on Sunday.

A place in the FA Cup quarter-finals is now up for grabs and Spurs will fancy their chances of progressing past Championship opposition in the form of Sheffield United, who have lost two of their last three games.
