TEAM FORM ==== Leipzig== WWWDD === Spurs LLLDD ==== (All Competitions)
Red Bull Leipzig (RB) are to host us for the first time in any competition, while we are the first English side to visit the RB in an away competitive match.
RB are looking to reach the quarter final of a major European competition for only the second time, reaching that stage in the 2017-18 Europa league before being eliminated by Marseille.
Four of RB's last five CL goal have been penalties, including each of the last three. Only one team has ever scored more than four penalties in a single CL campaign - Barcelona in 2011-12 (5).
We have only lost one of our five away CL games in Germany (W2 D2)' although that defeat came earlier this season away to Bayern Munich in the group stage (3-1).
We have been eliminated from 8 of our last 10 major UEFA European knockout ties after losing the first leg, although we overturned a deficit the last time this happened against Ajax in last season's Champion League semi-final (0-1 first leg, 2-3 second leg).
All three of our CL defeats this season have been against German teams (2 Bayern, 1 Leipzig). Only one team has ever lost more than three in a single campaign all against teams of the same nation, with Leeds Untied losing all five of their games against Spanish oppositions in 2000-01.
