Tottenham Hotspur compete with Doncaster Rovers at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the third round of the EFL 2025-26 Cup this Wednesday.
Tottenham started his season well, winning his first match in the UEFA Champions League last week. They are currently 3rd in the Premier League painting. Doncaster, on the other hand, is on a sequence of two consecutive defeats and occupies 7th place in League One.
So it will be as usual for Tottenham or Doncaster Spring being upset this week?
Tottenham vs Doncaster head-to-head and key numbers
- Tottenham only faced Doncaster once before, in the second round of the 2009-10 EFL Cup. This match saw the Spurs exhaust 1-5, with scorers, including Peter Crouch and Roman Pavlyuchenko.
- Some Tottenham fans were probably disappointed by their 2-2 draw in Brighton last weekend because many observers thought they were deserving the three points. However, the boss Thomas Frank said he thought that their performance, who had seen them go from 2-0 to shoot, was their best of the season so far.
- Although few people expect Doncaster realizing what would be a huge upheaval here, they already have a story in the EFL Cup this season. In the first round, they eliminated the current EFL Frontrunners Middlesbrough championship, amazing them with a 0-4 victory at the Riverside stadium.
- Doncaster actually has a Tottenham player on his list this season. The young winger Damola Ajayi, who scored in the victory of the Europa League against Ellsborg last season, spent the campaign on loan at the Eco-Power stadium, but will be unletegible to play on Wednesday.
- To find the last time Tottenham was dropped from the EFL Cup by a part of the unprecedented league, you must return to the 2019-20 season, when the Mauricio Pochettino team was amazed by the Team of the Ligue Deux Colchester.
Tottenham prediction vs doncaster
In normal circumstances, a great Premier League outfit like Tottenham should play young perspectives in a game like this. However, unfortunately to doncaster, it may not be the case.
Not only most of the best young players in Tottenham are being ready, but Thomas Frank may also want to give experienced activists like Archie Gray, Kevin Danso and Randal Kolo Muani a few minutes here.
This means that the chances of an upheaval seem very thin, especially since Doncaster are not particularly good at the moment anyway.
Prediction: Tottenham 4-0 Doncaster
