Ange Postecoglou says Tottenham will be in familiar territory for Sunday’s visit to fifth-tier Tamworth, insisting they are used to everyone rooting against them. Spurs visit the 4,000-seater Lamb Ground to take on National League side Tamworth in the pick of the ties on FA Cup third round weekend.

Ange Postecoglou is a huge fan of the FA Cup and its potential for shocks but will hope his Tottenham Hotspur side can avoid becoming the fall guys in what would be the biggest story of the third round when they travel to fifth-tier Tamworth on Sunday.

Ange Postecoglou says his Tottenham players will "respect" Tamworth in Sunday's FA Cup third-round clash, which will be held on an artificial pitch. Tamworth are the lowest-ranked team left of the competition and one of two non-league teams, along with Dagenham & Redbridge, still on the road to Wembley.

Police managing this weekend's huge FA Cup clash between Tamworth FC and Tottenham Hotspur have urged fans to enjoy the game "safely". It will be the first-ever Premier League team to visit The Lambs in the town's history.

Tottenham boss Ange Postecoglou will welcome the lack of VAR for Sunday's FA Cup third-round tie at Tamworth but will stop speaking about technology. Postecoglou witnessed history in English football on Wednesday when - for the first time - referee Stuart Attwell explained a VAR decision to fans inside the stadium during a 1-0 semi-final first-leg win over Liverpool in the Carabao Cup.
