League: Champions League
Date: Thursday, 9th Mar 2023
Time: 01:30 AM (IST)
Venue: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, England

Another one of Wednesday’s decisive matches in the Champions League is the Tottenham Hotspur vs AC Milan second leg of the round of 16 matches of the tournament.

The Italian club took the first step into the quarter-finals at home with a 1-0 win in the first leg, thanks to a goal by the Spaniard Brahim Diaz.

Storylines

Tottenham: In Conte’s absence Spurs have just about clung on to a top-four berth — but will have to improve if they are not overtaken by Liverpool and perhaps Newcastle — but have crashed out of the FA Cup at the hands of second-tier Sheffield United. Only an extremely unlikely run through the European field stands between the serial winner and another season without silverware at Tottenham.

Still, Conte would contend that the parameters for success ought to be viewed rather differently. “You know very well that for me this season represents a success if we fight,” he said in his pre-match press conference. “If we fight to be competitive to win something. I think that this has to be our target. Tottenham as a club has to need to have this target, every season to fight for something important, to fight to win. To win is not easy and I think we are in a country that is the most difficult country to win something. The Premier League has the top level and a lot of teams that want to win.”

AC Milan: Though they had seemingly addressed their defensive flaws since Stefano Pioli switched to a back three in defense, a 2-1 defeat to Fiorentina brought with it unpleasant questions for a Milan side that included several key starters. La Viola registered eight shots on target against Mike Maignan and may have felt they could have scored more than just the goals delivered by Nicolas Gonzalez and Luka Jovic.

Milan will likely conclude they need at least one goal if they are to get through this tie. In that regard, it will doubtless help that Olivier Giroud and Diaz both shook off knocks to participate in training at Milanello before the squad flew out on Tuesday morning.
