Carling Cup
Tottenham v Arsenal
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger saw his free-flowing team struggle at home in the first leg against Spurs, but come out with a 1-1 draw.
However he said that he feels they can go into a hostile White Hart Lane and emerge victorious over the two games.
"In the last six months we have gained that extra bit that can give us qualification at White Hart Lane," he said.
"We have what it takes to handle any atmosphere because the advantage with our players is that they have been in front of heated crowds with a lot of pressure - and they handled that.
"In the first game we were not at our best and we got out of it with a very good result. Therefore we are in a fantastic situation - we could already be out and now we have an opportunity to qualify.
"I am convinced that we will do it."
Wenger will again employ his policy of filling his side with youngsters in this competition, but will be forced to add a little experience into the mix due to injuries and players away at the African Cup of Nations.
Philippe Senderos and Johan Djourou are both out injured, so William Gallas will play in the centre of defence, possibly next to Gilberto. Theo Walcott is set to return to the side, but Robin van Persie is definitely out.
Spurs midfielder Steed Malbranque is available again after suspension but may not get the nod against their arch rivals. Ledley King is likely to return to the heart of the defence, but new signing Chris Gunter is cup-tied.
FA Cup
Sheffield Wednesday v Derby
The original replay at Hillsborough was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch. After a morale-boosting Championship win for Wednesday over local rivals Sheffield United at the weekend, the game will now go ahead.
Wednesday may have Francis Jeffers and Etienne Esajas back after the pair missed the derby, while Steve Watson could also return from a hamstring injury for the Owls.
However boss Brian Laws could rest weekend goal-scoring hero Akpo Sodje, who is nursing an ankle injury.
Derby will be without Danny Mills (knee) but Claude Davis (suspension) and Dean Leacock (groin) could return.
Rams boss Paul Jewell will also be unable to call on new signings Robbie Savage, Hossam Ghaly, Laurent Robert and Emanuel Villa, all of whom are cup-tied.
Bristol Rovers v Fulham
The Memorial Stadium will host another game that was postponed last week due to the weather.
The League One side managed a 2-2 draw at Craven Cottage in the first game and could be boosted by the return of Byron Anthony and Lewis Haldane, who have recovered from knocks. Ryan Green is still out with an Achilles injury.
Jimmy Bullard could make his first start of the season for Fulham, but Roy Hodgson will be without new signing Brede Hangeland, who is cup-tied.
FA Cup
Barnet v Swindon
Barnet's Ashley Carew is banned for the visit of Swindon and Josh Wright cup-tied, while Michael Leary returns from his own suspension and Sagi Burton may be passed fit after a knee problem.
Swindon new boys Patrick Kanyuka, Anthony McNamee and Moses Ashikodi signed after the deadline for the match and so cannot feature.
