To be played on Tuesday 27th September 2016 at 18:45. Venue: Arena Khimki,

Odds: CSKA Moscow 21/10, Draw 23/10, Tottenham 13/10

Tottenham Hotspur continue their Champions League campaign with a trip to Russia to take on CSKA Moscow on Tuesday evening.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side are flying high in the Premier League – thanks in no small part to the goals of Heung-min Son – but in Europe they will be looking to get over a defeat to AS Monaco last time out.

Tottenham are definitely without Harry Kane while Danny Rose is rated at 75 per cent to be ready if called upon.

There are also minor doubts regarding Eric Dier and Moussa Sissoko but both are expected to recover.

Tottenham cannot afford to lose two Champions League games in a row if they want to qualify for the knockout stages, yet a trip to CSKA is never easy and they will have to be at their best to come back with all three points.

A double-header against Bayer Leverkusen follows, proving there are no easy games in the competition these days.
