Tottenham Hotspur and Atletico Madrid will do battle once again on Wednesday night in their Champions League round of 16 second leg clash.
Spurs trail 5-2 from the first game in Spain after a disastrous start that saw them 4-0 down within 22 minutes and goalkeeper Antonin Kinsky hooked after just 16 minutes following a couple of gaffes that handed Atletico a big advantage in the tie. Now Tottenham are looking for a miracle in north London if they are to continue their European adventure rather than bring a close to it for the next 18 months at least.
Igor Tudor's injury-ravaged side halted their Premier League slide with a battling point at Liverpool on Sunday and they will be looking to use to that performance to build some momentum in a big week that also includes a relegation six-pointer against Nottingham Forest on Sunday afternoon in N17.
