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 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.

Tottenham Hotspur ended their four-game winless run on Wednesday evening by beating Liverpool 1-0 in the first leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final. Ange Postecoglou’s side put in a solid performance against Liverpool and they carry an advantage into the second leg of the tie at Anfield at the start of February.
