Hello and welcome to our LIVE coverage of Tottenham’s FA Cup fourth-round replay with League Two side Newport County from Wembley. Newport almost upset Spurs in the first meeting at Rodney Parade just over a week ago, only to be denied victory by an 82nd-minute equaliser from Harry Kane. Newport have lost twice since the original tie, while Spurs have beaten Manchester United at Wembley and drawn at Liverpool on Sunday. Spurs are likely to rotate, but can they get the job done? I’m Pete Hall, and I will be bringing you the action, as it happens, live!

30'
VAR! VAR! The referee has a look at a potential foul on Rose in the box, but nothing in that.
28'
At the same end Phil Jones put through his own net, Spurs benefit from an own goal once more. Butler could do nothing, and neither could Day.
26'
GOOOOOOALLLL! Tottenham 1-0 Newport. So unlucky as Dan Butler deflects Sissoko's cross past Joe Day and into the net.

The Spaniard is struggling once more.
22'
CHANCE! Winks is back to his feet. Sissoko's cross is deflected to the back post, Danny Rose arrives late, but fires into the side-netting.
20'
Harry Winks is down, receiving treatment. The young midfielder has just returned from injury.
18'
Faint penalty appeals waved away as Pipe and Moussa Sissoko clash in the box. Nothing given.
16'
Newport are actually the better side at the moment. Spurs can't get out of their own half.
14'
Big throw from Ben Tozer causes Spurs problems, but Michel Vorm is out to gather the loose ball.
12'
Padraig Amond gets up and heads over the top, but the flag is raised for offside regardless.
10'
Robbie Willmott lines up a free-kick from distance for the visitors, but fires the effort into the wall.
8'
Still no real threat from Spurs. Newport continue to press high.
6'
Fernando Llorente misplaces a pass for Spurs. Not the sharpest opening by the Premier League side.
4'
First shot of the game comes via the boot of Heung-Min Son, but he fires well over the top from a tight angle.
2'
Newport pressing really high here. Pushing Spurs right back into their defensive third.
1'
KICK OFF! We are under way here at Wembley this evening. Swansea showed the way last night, over to you, Spurs.
19:41
We are minutes away from the action at a bitterly cold Wembley. Spurs have named a strong side, with the cavalry on attendance on the bench. Can the men from South Wales spring one of the biggest shocks of all time? Rochdale await the winner.
19:32
HOME COMFORTS. Since losing to West Ham in the League Cup fourth round, Tottenham are unbeaten in their last 11 home games at Wembley (W9 D2), scoring 30 goals and conceding just six. In fact, Spurs have kept clean sheets in each of their last three home games in all competitions, they last kept four or more shutouts in September 2013 (six successive clean sheets).
19:21
Pre-match boost for the visitors...
19:19
TALL ORDER. The Exiles have won just one of their seven FA Cup away games against top-flight opposition (D1 L5), a 3-1 win against Huddersfield in February 1949, also a fourth-round replay
