Nottingham Forest go with Wayne Hennessey in goal tonight as they host Tottenham Hotspur in the Carabao Cup.

Former Tottenham defender Serge Aurier starts against his former club and appears to be in a back four alongside Joe Worrall, Willy Boly and Renan Lodi.

It then looks like a midfield three with Ryan Yates, Lewis O’Brien and Orel Mangala in the middle of the park.

Jesse Lingard starts and appears to be supporting Sam Surridge and Taiwo Awoniyi up top.

Morgan Gibbs-White drops to the bench, joining Dean Henderson, Steve Cook, Loic Mbe Soh, Neco Williams, Jack Colback, Brennan Johnson, Remo Freuler and Emmanuel Dennis.

Tottenham bring in Fraser Forster as their goalkeeper tonight with Hugo Lloris given a rest.

Spurs then go with a back three of Davinson Sanchez, Eric Dier and Clement Lenglet ahead of Forster.

Matt Doherty and Ryan Sessegnon are the wing backs with Yves Bissouma, Oliver Skipp and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in midfield.

Ivan Perisic supports Harry Kane in attack again, just as he did against Liverpool on Sunday.

Richarlison is back on the bench after nearly a month out injured, joining Lloris, Japhet Tanganga, Emerson Royal, Djed Spence, Rodrigo Bentancur, Pape Matar Sarr and Bryan Gil.
