Last Word on Football brings you the Atl\u00e9tico Madrid vs Tottenham Hotspur team news as the clubs face off in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday at 8:00pm. Spurs\u2019 European form has been strong this season, with a 2\u20130 victory at Frankfurt securing their passage from the league phase to the last 16. Despite a challenging league campaign, Tottenham’s only loss in the Champions League came against the reigning champions Paris Saint-Germain. Igor Tudor has endured a difficult start to life in the Spurs dugout<\/a>, losing all three of his matches. He will be hoping that this match can provide a platform not only to progress to the quarter-finals, but also to lift spirits in their relegation battle.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Atl\u00e9tico Madrid managed a 7\u20134 aggregate win over Club Brugge in the playoff round to reach this stage. Diego Simeone\u2019s side are enjoying a strong campaign, having defeated Barcelona to reach the Copa del Rey final last week. Comfortably in La Liga\u2019s top four, Atl\u00e9tico will be able to put full focus on this encounter.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
