Barcelona face Tottenham at the Camp Nou on Tuesday, Dec. 11. Here’s all the info you need to watch.
The Champions League group stage wraps up this weekend. In one of the marquee games, Barcelona host Tottenham at Camp Nou on Tuesday. Barcelona have already qualified for the knockout but Spurs have everything to play for. Tottenham and Inter Milan are tied with seven points. Spurs need to beat Barcelona and hope that PSV Eindhoven steal a point from Inter if they are going to advance to the round of 16.
Barcelona won their second straight La Liga game on Saturday, beating city rivals Espanyol 4-0. Lionel Messi was brilliant, scoring a brace and setting up Ousmane Dembele’s goal. In the previous game against Tottenham, Barcelona won 4-2, with Messi scoring a second-half brace. However, with Barcelona already through to the round of 16, Ernesto Valverde might decide to rest his key starters. Barcelona have nothing to gain by winning, so it would make sense to rest players such as Philippe Coutinho and Luis Suarez, who have both dealt with injuries this season.
Tottenham have to win if they are going to continue in the Champions League. Spurs defeated Leicester 2-0 over the weekend, giving them five wins in their last six games. Mauricio Pochettino decided to keep Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen on the bench against Leicester, using them as substitutes. Not having to play the full 90 minutes, should benefit both players against Barcelona. Kane has been great again this season for Spurs, scoring 13 goals between the Premier League and the Champions League.
