Tottenham Hotspur team news: Predicted XI to face Gillingham in the EFL Cup

Tottenham begin their EFL Cup campaign on Wednesday night as they host League One side Gillingham, managed by former White Hart Lane star Justin Edinburgh.

This match might not quite pull in the 85,011 fans that Spurs’ Champions League clash with Monaco did, but it is still an important game.

Mauricio Pochettino will want his fringe stars and new signings to get up to speed so he can fully rotate his troops in the coming weeks.

He’s already hinted a host of youngsters could get a chance to shine, while injuries to Harry Kane and starlet Shayon Harrison mean Vincent Janssen is a sure-fire starter.
