Tottenham XI vs Brighton: Confirmed team news, starting lineup and injury latest for FA Cup tie today

Tottenham have new signings Rodrigo Bentancur and Dejan Kulusevski available off the bench tonight as they host Brighton in the FA Cup fourth-round.

Antonio Conte welcomes back Cristian Romero and Heung-min Son from hamstring injuries, and both go straight back into the XI against the Seagulls.

But Oliver Skipp (groin) and Japhet Tanganga (knee) are both unavailable, meaning Harry Winks continues his run of starts in the middle of the park.

Conte had a decision to make at right wing-back, where Emerson Royal and Matt Doherty now face competition from Kulusevski, who Conte believes could be an option in the role, and the Italian has put his faith in Royal.

The Spurs manager has picked Lucas Moura over Steven Bergwijn for the third attacking spot, despite impressive displays from the Dutchman before the winter break.

Tottenham XI: Lloris; Romero, Sanchez, Davies, Royal, Winks, Hojbjerg, Reguilon, Lucas, Kane, Son.

Subs: Gollini, Doherty, Sessegnon, Rondon, White, Bentancur, Kulusevski, Bergwijn, Scarlett
