With Antonio Conte set to watch the game in the stands, he claims his team “will have to show great character in this game”, just like they did against Bournemouth in their last gasp win on the weekend.
After the VAR controversy last Wednesday at The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium against Sporting Lisbon, it is still all to play for in Group D. Tottenham sit first in their group but still face the prospect of potentially playing Europa League football post World Cup.
Cristian Stellini will be in the dugout as Conte was shown a red card in the aftermath of Harry Kane’s goal being disallowed and he has said “without Antonio on the touchline, everyone has to give something more”.

Igor Tudor has said “it is beautiful to be able to play a decisive match in such a strong group, for an outsider like us”, as the Croatian hopes to bring Marseille to the knockout stages of the Champions League for the first time since their quarter final run in 2011/12.
“A win and we go through, that would be incredible considering the history of the previous campaigns in the Champions League”.
