On March 8, Tottenham Hotspur (London) will host the second leg of the 1/8 finals of the Champions League, in which Tottenham will compete with Milan. The battle will start at 21:00 CET.

Tottenham

The team after its peak in the form of the Champions League final was left without a successful mentor, Pochettino, in a quite quick way. As a result, several years were lost, and it returned to the top 4 only at the end of the previous season. That was achieved by Antonio Conte, who came during the 2021/2022 draw, and led his new wards out of the “pit”. As it often happens with this coach, the troubles began after a quick success. “The Spurs” demonstrate an unstable game and have a lot of misfires – however, their competitors do the same. The situation was similar in the long-awaited Champions League. Being in a fairly simple group (Marseille, Sporting, Eintracht), the British team came to the play-off only after the last round. And the higher mentioned play-off began with a defeat at San Siro, albeit a minimal one.

Milan

The club, being under the rule of Stefano Pioli, added in the game quickly (and quite unexpectedly). The first sign of that was the return to the Champions League in the previous cycle. Then, however, the Italian team was only in the 4th place in the group, albeit a difficult one. The higher mentioned result was compensated by winning the Scudetto in the spring. Nowadays, the situation is opposite: there is no chance to retain the title at the inner arena – Napoli is very strong. And it’s good that the mid-winter decline has already passed. And this time, “the Red and Blacks” have achieved success in the Champions League, finally reaching the play-offs. However, it is reasonable to mention that they were weaker in the group than another representative of England, Chelsea, achieving the desired result in the games against Dinamo Zagreb and Red Bull (Salzburg). On the other hand, it started the 1/8 stage with a victory, albeit a home and minimal one – thus, an away draw will be enough.

The statistics of head-to-head matches

Tottenham had not lost in 4 previous official head-to-head matches by the higher mentioned defeat. Both in 1972 and 2011, it won the first match, which was followed by a draw in the return one.

Predictions

Bookmakers are waiting for the revenge of the British team. Nevertheless, the guests will give a real fight. Thus, we are sure about a spectacular battle and “total: over 2.5” (odd: 1.99).
