Steve Cooper's Nottingham Forest will be hoping to pile more pain on Antonio Conte's Tottenham as these two top flight sides come together in one of the more choice fixtures of this year's Carabao Cup third round. This evening's game sees Spurs looking to get back to winning ways after a bad run has raised question marks over the north Londoners chances of winning something this season. 

The starting line ups have been announced, and the hosts name a strong starting line up with Harry Kane starting up front for Spurs, in a side that also includes Ivan Perišić, Eric Dier and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg. Sweden star Dejan Kulusevski meanwhile continues his return from a hamstring injury with a place on the bench alongside summer signing Djed Spence.

Forest's starting eleven also resembles a first choice line up, with the visitors naming a forward line of Jesse Lingard, Taiwo Awoniyi and Sam Surridge.

Spurs have a decent record in this tournament to protect. The Lilywhites have reached the last four in the Carabao Cup in three of the last four seasons, with their 2008 triumph the last time the club managed to win a major piece of silverware.

Forest, on the other hand, will likely be grateful for the distraction that this cup clash brings, given their Premier League troubles. They're outsiders to progress and have only reached the fourth round in this completion once in the last 17 seasons.

Spurs were resolute in repelling an all-out Forest attack when the two teams met at the same venue in August. It was Tottenham who picked off the hosts thanks to a double from England skipper Harry Kane. Wednesday's encounter could well see Conte rest one or two of his stars, though. Will Djed Spence get a chance to return to his old stomping ground? Here's how to watch a Nottingham Forest vs Tottenham live stream from anywhere in the world.
