AC Milan welcome Tottenham Hotspur to San Siro for an intriguing round-of-16 first-leg tie on Tuesday night. After a couple of months of break, the much-awaited club football tournament returns. It is an interesting opening leg tie with very little to separate them. Both sides are not where they would like to be at this point in their respective leagues, as they are struggling for consistency. Hence, it will be difficult to call a winner in this contest on Tuesday night.

Despite being the defending champions in Italy, AC Milan have only been a shadow of their self from last season. It is the inconsistencies that has cost them big time in Serie A. Besides, it has been extremely difficult for other teams to keep up pace with runaway leaders Napoli in the division. However, Milan can take comfort from the hard-fought victory they managed against Torino at the weekend. It brought an end to their three-match losing streak in the league.

However, the same cannot be said for Tottenham Hotspur, who were thumped 4-1 by Leicester City at the weekend. That is not how they would ideally like to prepare for a big Champions League knockout fixture. Overall, Tottenham have 39 points from 23 matches to be sitting fifth in the Premier League table. On the other hand, AC Milan have 41 points from 22 matches to also be placed at the fifth spot in Serie A standings.
