Tottenham Hotspur are taking on League Two side Colchester United in the EFL Trophy group stage on Tuesday evening.
Spurs have been in fine form under U21s boss Wayne Burnett this season. He has them flying high on top of the 26-team Premier League 2 table, having won all four of their matches and scoring 15 goals with just one conceded. City were brushed aside 5-0 away from home, Newcastle 4-1, Derby 2-0 and Blackburn 4-0.
Summer signing Alejo Veliz is in line to get his first match action after an injury while another new arrival Ashley Phillips will play his second game for the U21s.
Also in the line-up is Jamie Donley, who has six assists and a goal in his four games this time around while Yago Santiago has four goals and four assists from those matches. The duo have both been nominated for the August Premier League 2 Player of the Month award.
Strikers Jude Soonsup-Bell and Will Lankshear were brought in last season from Chelsea and Sheffield United respectively, although both were lost to injuries soon after their return. This season, both back and fit, the former already has four goals and two assists in his first four matches in Premier League 2 and the latter has scored three times in those four games.
There is also talented young centre-back Alfie Dorrington, who has been training with the first team at times this season under Ange Postecoglou.

Spurs playing with a midfield that has Jamie Donley in front of Lyons-Foster and Craig. It's a 4-3-3 but also a 4-2-3-1 of sorts with Lankshear up top. Ashley Phillips on the right of the centre-back pairing with Alfie Dorrington on the left.
First match for birthday boy Veliz

Keeley; Ashcroft, Dorrington, Phillips, Sayers; Lyons-Foster, Donley, Craig; Soonsup-Bell, Lankshear, Santiago. Subs: Andiyapan, Maguire, Robson, McKnight, Veliz, Kyerematen, Cassanova.
