Ange Postecoglou's Tottenham Hotspur must look away from their midweek win over Liverpool for a completely different battle on Sunday – one that sees them travel to fifth-tier Tamworth in the FA Cup.
One of Spurs' most measured and controlled performances of the season kept Liverpool at one 1-0 win on Wednesday night, and a draw at Anfield next month will see them in March Carabao Cup final.
With a table in the middle Premier League conclusion currently predicted, this season is all about cups for the Lilywhites. They have the potential to compete on multiple fronts in the stretch with their injury woes easing in February. However, for Sunday's cup tie, Postecoglou is working with the same reshuffled group of players.
The Spurs boss will be wary of using his big guns at his disposal with the North London Derby looming, so there should be some departures for unknown and forgotten faces.
GK: Antonin Kinsky – The January arrival took just a few days to endear himself to the fan base and he could have another chance to establish himself ahead of Wednesday's derby. Kinsky looks the part.
RB: Djed Spence – There's no need for Pedro Porro here, so we can see the impressive Spence on the wings and start at right-back.
CB: Radu Dragusin – Deprived of centre-back options due to injury, Dragusin is likely to continue in defense due to his aerial ability. Tommy Tonks and his long shots await.
CB: Alfie Dorrington – Despite that, Postecoglou has been reluctant to use the Enfieldian teenager SpursLack of availability at centre-back, and Dorrington is yet to make his first start for the club. He will probably be used here to give Archie Gray some time.
LB: Sergio Reguilon – The Spaniard's persistence should be commended and he could be rewarded with a rare start in Tamworth.
CM: Yves Bissouma – Tottenham have little choice but to go strong in midfield. With Rodrigo Bentancur out, Bissouma is likely to retain his place in Spurs' engine base.
CM: James Maddison – One of two players likely to make the XI after being suspended on Wednesday, Maddison will be aiming to put on a show for the home crowd on Sunday.
CM: Pape Sarr – Sarr was also suspended in midweek and it's unlikely we'll see much of Lucas Bergvall given his likely inclusion in the North London Derby starting line-up. With the Swede impressing of late, Sarr has slipped down the rankings.
RW: Yang Min-hyeok – Not much is known about the young South Korean striker, and this would be the place to get his first taste of English football.
ST: Will Lankshear – Dominic Solanke is in desperate need of a breather and there is no doubt he will be rested for the derby. As a result, youngster Lankshear, who scored in Istanbul earlier this season, will be in charge.
LW: Mikey Moore – After missing two months of football through illness, Moore returned to the matchday squad on Wednesday and is in contention for a start over Timo Werner.
