Tottenham Hotspur travel to Germany as RB Leipzig host the second leg of their Champions League round of 16 clash.
The English side have to overturn a 1-0 deficit after Timo Werner's second-half penalty put Leipzig ahead in the tie.
Die Roten Bullen are having a brilliant season in the Bundesliga and are challenging both Bayern and Borussia Dortmund for the title. On the other hand, Spurs are in a highly-contested race for a Champions League spot, but their hopes are slowly fading away.

Injury Update
Tottenham's main man Harry Kane remains a long-term absentee as does silky attacker Son Heung-min. Midfielder Moussa Sissoko and defender Juan Foyth will also be watching from the sidelines. Jose Mourinho also said last week that a lot of his players were physically 'dead'.
For the German side, Timo Werner should be fit to start after coming on as a sub at the weekend. Defenders Willi Orban, Ibrahima Konate and Ethan Ampadu are all injured, as is Kevin Kampl.

Prediction
Jose Mourinho's side will be desperate to end their poor run of form but it's hard to see them turning it around here. RB Leipzig will not lay down easily and Spurs will struggle to deal with them on the counter as they look to grab a goal.

Due to the lack of quality this Spurs team possesses, Leipzig will probably edge this one. Then again, last year's Champions League semi-final between Ajax and Spurs suggests to not rule them out.
Prediction: RB Leipzig 2-1 Tottenham (AGGREGATE: 3-1)
