Tottenham boss Harry Redknappp admits he will field a shadow selection tonight against Europa League opponents Shamrock Rovers.

With the derby against Arsenal looming, Redknapp intends to rest the majority of his first team tomorrow, but insists Spurs will not be taking the match lightly.

"I have got two eyes on the derby. I'm not putting my first team out tomorrow but it'll be a team with some good, experienced players that will contain probably seven or eight full internationals," Redknapp said.

"Players like Gareth Bale and Adebayor will not play. I can't afford to miss them for the weekend.

"It's a game we're entitled to win. But they will rise to the big occasion. They're a good side and have done well.

"[Assistant manager] Joe Jordan went to watch them and was impressed. They went to Belgrade and won."
