Leicester vs Tottenham: As it happened

The saga continues: Spurs will hope it is fourth time lucky against Leicester
Sam Long20 January 2016

Tottenham travel to the King Power Stadium to face Leicester for the third time in just 10 days tonight.

The two teams have become familiar foes over the past week or so and the high-flying Foxes have proven to be a difficult nut to crack.

Spurs are yet to beat Claudio Ranieri's side this season and required a late Harry Kane penalty to save their blushes in the original third-round tie.

Robert Huth's header proved to be decisive in the recent Premier League clash and all signs point towards another tight encounter this evening.

A place in the fourth round is up for grabs - and with it a trip to League One outfit Colchester United - but the hosts are expected to make widespread changes against the north Londoners.

Pochettino could also opt to freshen up his side after a convincing victory over Sunderland as the Argentine's young side are still battling on three fronts.

With the possibility of extra time and penalties on the table fans can expect to see an entertaining affair as the top-four contenders face off for the fourth time this season.
