Spurs have been drawn away at Deepdale as they bid to progress in a competition that represents their best chance of silverware this season.

Antonio Conte’s side were lifted by their 1-0 win at Fulham on Monday but it promises to be a tricky evening against a Preston side chasing promotion in the Championship. Spurs dispatched Portsmouth 1-0 in the third round, while Preston beat Huddersfield 3-1.

After drawing level with Jimmy Greaves on 266 Spurs goals with the winner against Fulham, Harry Kane needs just one more to become the club’s outright record scorer of all-time.

Preston vs Tottenham team news

Manchester City’s Liam Delap has joined Preston on loan but is cup-tied, while Troy Parrott cannot feature against his parent club.

For Tottenham, Arnaut Danjuma is in contention to make his debut for the club having signed on loan from Villarreal in midweek, turning his back on Everton at the last minute in the process.

Fraser Forster should get another FA Cup start in goal, with Japhet Tanganga and Pape Matar Sarr likely coming into the side too as Conte shuffles his pack.

Richarlison will be looking to make his first start since the World Cup, while going past Greaves to take Tottenham’s goalscoring record will very much be on Kane’s mind should he start.

However, the England talisman has been dealing with illness this week and could have a limited role. Lucas Moura played and scored for Tottenham’s Under-21 team against Arsenal on Friday night as he stepped up his comeback from a tendon injury and Bryan Gil is a doubt.

Preston vs Tottenham prediction

While Tottenham have looked far from convincing at the back in recent weeks, Preston are not exactly prolific when it comes to scoring. Only Huddersfield and Cardiff have netted fewer goals in the Championship this season.

With confidence still fragile, any win will do for Spurs as they look to finally kick their season into gear, and another narrow victory could be on the cards.

Tottenham to win, 1-0.
