Carabao Cup 2025-2026: Tottenham-Doncaster, the likely lineups

Tottenham-Doncaster is a Carabao Cup round of 16 match.

Thomas Frank’s side are third in the Premier League standings and are clear favorites against the Rovers, seventh in League One (the English C Series). Spurs’ massive turnover and provincial motivation, however, could lead to a surprise, which are not so rare in British cups.

The Londoners take the field with the trident Johnson-Scarlett-Tel. In midfield are Sarr, Gray and Simons, the full-backs are Spence and Udogie.

Doncaster relies on Sharp in attack, Molyneux, Crew, Gibson on the trequartista line, Bailey and Close in the midfield.
