Tottenham Hotspur travel to Turin to face Juventus, last season’s runners-up, in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 clash.

Spurs, fresh off the back of last weekend’s victory in the north London derby, will be looking to take the game to their Italian counterparts before the second leg at Wembley in three weeks’ time.

Mauricio Pochettino was full of praise for his squad after their victory against Arsenal but said he wants his players to be even “braver” against Juventus.

What time does it start?

Juventus vs Tottenham kicks off at 7.45pm on Tuesday 13 February at the Juventus Stadium.

Where can I watch it?

The match will be shown live on BT Sport 2 from 7pm. Highlights will be shown at 10.45pm on ITV 1 on Wednesday night.

It’s a big game for…

Dele Alli. The 21-year-old has not enjoyed his best season at Spurs with only five Premier League goals so far.

Question marks are being raised about his recent form but it’s in games like these where the Alli can silence the doubters.

He scored twice in Spurs’ memorable victory against Real Madrid in November, and has three assists in his three Champions League appearances this campaign.

Weird stat…

1 in 16. Spurs might be heading to Italy buoyed by their domestic form but they’re taking on a Juventus team that has astonishingly conceded only one goal in their last 16 games in all competitions.

Remember when…

Spurs have never faced Juventus in a competitive clash but the sides came together in a friendly last summer as Kane and Eriksen goals helped Spurs to victory.

They will be hoping for the same scoreline this time around.

Player to watch…

Jan Vertonghen. A lot of the Belgian’s work goes unnoticed but with Toby Alderweireld missing through injury for much of this season, Vertonghen has become Spurs’ most valuable defender.

If Pochettino’s men are hoping to bring a good result back to London they are likely to need another good performance from their centre half.

87' - Jan Vertonghen makes a crucial interception to block Douglas Costa's Gonzalo Higuain-bound cross. The Argentine would've had a tap-in there if it wasn't for Vertonghen's intervention.

Juventus are finishing this match as the stronger side.

Full-time - Juventus 2-2 Spurs

The referee blows the final whistle and Spurs have come from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 in Turin!

Gonzalo Higuain scored twice in the opening 10 minutes for the hosts but goals from Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen ensure Spurs go into March's second leg with a huge chance of reaching the quarter-finals.

In tonight's other match Manchester City hit Basel for four in Switzerland.

City were 3-0 up after half an hour courtesy of goals from Ilkay Gundogan, Bernardo Silva and Sergio Aguero, and Gundogan rounded off the scoring in the second half to all but ensure the visitors' passage to the last eight.

"I've always liked you, Sergio. Honest."
