Tottenham face Juventus in the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie at Wembley on Wednesday night.

Having come back from two goals down to draw 2-2 in the first leg in Turin, Spurs will surely fancy their chances of reaching the quarter-finals.

Here, Press Association Sport looks at five talking points surrounding the big match.

Keep it clean

Serge Aurier’s suspension means the right-back slot is far more clear cut, with Kieran Trippier coming in. Davinson Sanchez also starts in the absence of Toby Alderweireld in a Tottenham rearguard
who know a clean sheet will see them through to the quarter-finals.

Dier mission

Harry’s game

Harry Kane already has seven goals in Europe this season but none of those will matter if Spurs go crashing out. The England striker’s reputation continues to blossom and he will be desperate
for another eye-catching display on the big stage.
