FULL TIME: Tottenham 4-3 Wycombe
An FA Cup tie that will go down as one of the competition's classics. Wycombe raced into a first half lead thanks to captain Paul Hayes but were pegged back by goals from Heung-min Son and Vincent Janssen.
Wycombe regained the lead thanks to Thompson's wonderful header, but late, late strikes from Son and Dele Alli deny the Chairboys an upset.
Tottenham huffing and puffing against Wycombe but have not found a breakthrough yet. Son creates space but his effort is snaffled, while Janssen's claims for a penalty were ignored.
Brentford have started the second half with renewed vigour after being utterly dominated for the entire first half, but Chelsea are still comfortable.
As it stands Tottenham are set to outdo Liverpool, but not in the way they would have hoped.
Pochettino's men are deservedly 2-0 behind to League Two outfit Wycombe, thanks to a brace from Paul Hayes.
Chelsea have no interest in giving their lesser opponents a sniff of an upset and are cruising to a comfortable win over Brentford. 2-0 at Stamford Bridge at half-time.
Manchester City are edging a tight encounter at Selhurst Park thanks to a Raheem Sterling strike, while Burnley are beating Bristol City 1-0 courtesy of Sam Vokes.
Middlesbrough are being held at home by Accrington Stanley, Blackburn are beating Blackpool 2-0 in the Lancashire Derby, Lincoln's fairytale is in danger of ending, Huddersfield are beating Rochdale 1-0 at Spotland, while it's goalless between Oxford and Newcastle at the Kassam Stadium.
All to play for in the second period.
That's all she wrote for Liverpool! Jurgen Klopp's men have been knocked out by Wolves to cap a dreadful week at Anfield.
Divock Origi halved the deficit from close-range but it was too little, too late. Check out our liveblog for a recap of the action.
There is an FA Cup clash happening as we speak. Liverpool are currently losing 2-0 to Championship outfit Wolverhampton Wanderers at Anfield and are in serious danger of becoming the story of the round for all the wrong reasons.
Jurgen Klopp's men were also knocked out of the EFL Cup by Southampton in midweek, and with their title hopes already hanging by a thread, the Reds' season could well peter out against Paul Lambert's men.
Asmir Begovic looks set to start for Chelsea against Brentford at Stamford Bridge, but the game against the Bees could be his last for the league leaders as speculation over his future refuses to go away.
Branislav Ivanovic may also be given a rare start, though he seems close to a move to Zenit St Petersburg. With one eye on his side's clash against Liverpool on Tuesday, Antonio Conte may see fit to rotate his players and give outings to the likes of Michy Batshuayi and Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
Tottenham have little choice but to ring the changes against Wycombe.
Danny Rose, Toby Alderweireld and Harry Kane have all been ruled out of the clash at White Hart Lane, while Jan Vertonghen is still out of action after suffering ankle ligament damage a couple of weeks ago.
Will Wycombe forward Adebayo Akinfenwa be able to take advantage of Spurs' defensive crisis?
