Real Madrid would be looking to get back to winning ways after back to back defeats at the hands of Barcelona as they look to retain the Champions League title they won in the past 3 seasons.

Los Merengues have significantly been weakened by the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo and Zinedine Zidane last summer and that has shown more in their domestic form as they are currently 12 points behind Barcelona.

Madrid were beaten by Barcelona at the weekend, but they would hope that their Champions League form would lead them to the next round here.

They won the first leg of this game but they have lost 3 and won 1 of the last 4 games that has followed that win at Amsterdam.

Ajax have done better since the last time these teams met. The Dutch side have played 3 games since that time and they have won all of them, scoring 13 times and conceding just one goal.

This game is still open after the 2-1 first leg score line and both sides would fancy their chances.

Tottenham would be happy to turn their attention away from the Premier League that they have done very badly this season and turn it towards the Champions League as they seek to make progress to the quarterfinals.

The Lillywhites hold a 3-0 advantage from the first leg and their fans would feel that they already have one leg in the next round.

They come into this game after another poor showing in their 1-1 draw against Arsenal but this game gives them the chance to put things right.

Dortmund have looked like they would be running away with the German league title for much of the season, but their season threatens to implode at the moment.

They are currently level on points with Bayern Munich and only top on goal difference. They come into this game after a disappointing 2-1 loss at Augsburg so their fans would be expecting a response here.
