Tottenham Champions League opponents: Spurs’ best and worst possible Champions League draws
Spurs look likely to be third seeds in the Champions League draw, which could hand them all sorts of problems
TOTTENHAM could have their work cut out to qualify from the Champions League group stage for the first time in seven years.
Mauricio Pochettino’s side will be seeded third in Thursday’s draw, leaving them with the possibility of facing any of Europe’s top sides.
Spurs were knocked out of an easy-looking group with Monaco, Bayer Leverkusen and CSKA Moscow last season.
Here is all you need to know about their potential group.
WHO TOTTENHAM CAN’T FACE
Tottenham cannot face any English teams in the group stage.
And they will avoid Napoli, Roma, Basel, Anderlecht, Olympiakos and Besiktas as they are in the same pot as those sides.
