    Tuesday 14th February 8pm
    Champions League Round of 16
    Stadio Giuseppe Meazza​

    Lloris, Bentancur, Bissouma, Sessegnon and everyone else are all injured.
    Hojbjerg is banned, but Romero returns from suspension.

    Lineups for each side's last league game:

    Spurs: Forster; Tanganga, Dier, Davies; Porro, Bentancur, Hojbjerg, Perisic; Kulusevski, Kane, Son.
    Subs: Austian, Emerson, Sanchez, Lenglet, Skipp, Sarr, Danjuma, Moura, Richarlison.
    League form: WLLWWL.

    Milan: Tatarusana; Kalulu, Thiaw, Kjaer; Saelemaekers, Tonali, Krunic, Hernandez; Diaz, Leao; Giroud.
    Subs: Vasquez, Mirante, Calabria, Gabbia, Ballo-Toure, Bakayoko, Pobega, Vranckx, Adli, De Ketelaere, Rebic, Messias, Ibrahimovic, Origi.
    League form: DDLLLW.

    Ref: Sandro Schärer (SUI). 34-year-old Swiss ref. Relatively inexperienced.
    VAR: Marco Fritz (GER). More experienced, but seems to ref less games than normal. VAR specialist?

    TV: BT Sport 1.

    How would you like to line up for this one?

    I've watched Milan enough since the WC.

    They're ****. And when I say ****, I mean really ****.

    You will win. Lump money on it, fill your boots.

    Milan are all over the place. A bit of pressure and they fold.

    As long as you're compact and well organised, like against City you'll be fine.

    In theory the injuries/suspensions mean that the team virtually picks itself, but somehow I think that Conte will do something odd.

    Predicted Conte Team - Forster, Romero, Lenglet, Davies, Emerson, Dier, Sarr, Perisic, Kulusevski. Son and Kane

    My Preferred team 4-4-2 - Forster, Emerson, Romero, Lenglet, Davies, Kulu, Sarr, Skipp, Perisic, Richarlison and Kane and there is more chance of me scoring the winner than Conte changing formation!

    Greaves won the league with Milan and the FA Cup with Spurs in the same season.

    I have to say I much prefer this over the Paul Stewart game. Much more unpredictable.
