Mark Robins relishing Tottenham FA Cup tie

:Headline: Mark Robins relishing Tottenham FA Cup tie: ID:57543: from db_amp
Coventry City boss Mark Robins is relishing a repeat of the 1987 FA Cup final against Tottenham in the third round of this year's Cup.

Mark Robins has said that his Coventry City side could cause an FA Cup third-round upset against Tottenham Hotspur.

Coventry will play Spurs at White Hart Lane in January, after being drawn against the North London side earlier today.

The Sky Blues boss said: "This is a really good cup tie. Yes we wanted to be at home, but we now have the chance to play against one of the top sides in Europe who are steeped in FA Cup history and we will be relishing that chance.

"It will certainly be a good day out for our supporters. There are always surprises in the third round of the FA Cup and we have to hope that we can be one of them.

"We have been to Arsenal this season and acquitted ourselves well, but we want to avoid a repeat of the scoreline."

The fixture is a repeat of the 1987 FA Cup final, which Coventry won 3-2.
