Tottenham Hotspur face Barcelona in the Champions League clash at the Camp Nou this evening.

Sport explains Spurs are playing ‘all or nothing’ against Ernesto Valverde’s side as the outcome of the fixture could decide the English club’s chances of progressing to the knock out stages of the competition.

The biggest threat for the north London side is Lionel Messi, who has scored 22 goals against Premier League clubs in the Champions League, and Sport think English clubs have any idea how to stop him.

Earlier this season, the Argentine scored a brace against Mauricio Pochettino’s men at Wembley, and it’s not thought he’s going to be rested.

Sport and Mundo Deportivo have predicted the starting XI for both clubs.

It’s best to ignore the Tottenham selection and they wouldn’t really know, so all eyes towards Barcelona.

Mundo has Carles Aleñá, while Sport has Arthur instead of Aleñá in the midfield alongside Sergio Busquets and Arturo Vidal. In the attack, the former has Munir El Haddadi and the latter has Ousmane Dembele, with Lionel Messi and Philippe Coutinho.

The two newspapers have predicted the same back four of Nelson Semedo, Clement Lenglet, Thomas Vermaelen and Juan Miranda, with Jasper Cillessen in goal.
