11'
Byrom's tail is up when he receives the ball just outside the box, but that shot may well bring him back down to earth when the ball is retrieved from Row Z.
10'
Cross-field pass from one side to the other is mis-controlled by Lennon and the away side clear.
9'

Walker for Dawson is confirmed.
8'
Kyle Walker is getting ready to come on. Expect Kaboul to move back inside from right-back with this change.
7'
Uh oh, the stretcher is coming out. Replay shows Dawson landed very heavily on his right leg. Looked ugly.
6'
Dawson is down receiving treatment. Expect a few Stevenage players to follow if they're able to hang on here. They have a bit of a reputation for gamesmanship.
5'
Have to say, it looked like Byrom bought that one. Looked and saw Nelson going to ground and pushed the ball away before taking the challenge. That said, it's not illegal. Just very, very sly. Definitely a foul, no ball contact made.

Byrom was brought down by Nelsen in the box. It's Bryom who will take this... and he puts the visitors ahead!

Stevenage kick off the first half.
19:30
The teams are out. We're moments from kick-off. Predictions? Anyone think Stevenage can pull this off?
19:25
A goalless draw last month brings us to this replay. Relive the first 90 minutes here:
19:20
Tonight's referee is Michael Oliver of Northumberland.
19:15
Stevenage meanwhile retain almost the entire 11 who started the original tie with Spurs at the Lamex. Shroot comes in for Freeman who is out with a foot injury, while Beardsley returns from a hamstring pull suffered in the League One side's 2-0 defeat at Charlton a fortnight ago.
19:10
Only Kaboul and Lennon survive the starting line-up from the weekend's 3-1 defeat at home to Manchester United. A strong bench, however, named by Harry Redknapp in the event of a difficult scoreline in the second half.
