Wembley experiences will hand us FA Cup advantage - Spurs star Kane

Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane believes playing at Wembley this season will hold the team in good stead if they happen to make the FA Cup final.

Spurs host Belgian side Gent at English football's headquarters in the Europa League Round of 32 second leg on Thursday and Kane feels past experiences in the Champions League this season could be beneficial if they happen to get through to the final of the FA Cup.

"Yes, 100 per cent," he said after the fifth-round win over Fulham on Sunday.

"I think that is important. We had a little taste of it in the Champions League – we won our last game there (against CSKA Moscow). We have got another game there Thursday.

"If we can get a good feeling there, get used to it, play our style of football. Obviously the more games we play there, the better it will be for us.

"The more used to the surroundings we will be."
