Ryan Mason has confirmed his starting XI for the Carabao Cup final against Manchester City.

Harry Kane is passed fit in one of three changes from Wednesday’s victory over Southampton.

The back four remains the same, but Harry Winks makes his first start since early-March, whilst Giovani Celso gets the nod over Tanguy Ndombele, who drops to the bench – with Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in the deep-lying midfield role.

Elsewhere, Heung Min Son and Lucas Moura support Kane, although there’s no place in the side for Gareth Bale, who’s on the bench despite his goal against his former side in midweek.

Joe Rodon, who’s cup-tied having played for Swansea earlier in the competition, misses out, as do both Matt Doherty and Ben Davies, who’re both sidelined through injury.

Carlos Vinicius is also left out of the 20-man squad, with the likes of Dele Alli, Erik Lamela and Steven Bergwijn all preferred by Mason.
