How Tottenham Hotspur could line up against Norwich City

Sports Mole looks at how Tottenham Hotspur could line up for their FA Cup fifth-round tie with Norwich City on Wednesday.

Tottenham Hotspur and Norwich City face off in North London on Wednesday in an all-Premier League tie for a place in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.

Spurs needed replays to overcome Middlesbrough and Southampton in the previous two rounds and have struggled for form in recent weeks.

Jose Mourinho has bemoaned his side's growing injury list, with Ryan Sessegnon and Hugo Lloris the latest players to pick up knocks.

Ahead of the midweek visit of Norwich, Sports Mole looks at how Mourinho may set out his side.

Out: Harry Kane (hamstring), Moussa Sissoko (knee), Son Heung-min (arm)

Alli was tasked with leading the line in the 3-2 defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers, with Steven Bergwijn and Lucas Moura either side.

Mourinho does not believe that Troy Parrott is yet ready for senior football, so given his lack of other options - with Erik Lamela also struggling for fitness - the front three may remain unchanged.

At the other end of the field, Lloris could be facing another spell on the sidelines, meaning a chance for Paulo Gazzaniga to impress in goal.

Mourinho is expected to rotate elsewhere, though, and that could mean returns to the side for one or both of Tanguy Ndombele and Gedson Fernandes, who both made substitute appearances against Wolves at the weekend.
