TEAM FORM: --- Spurs WDWWW ------ Leipzig - LDLDW -----(All Competitions)
This will be the first encounter between us. Its also the the first time the team from RB Leipzig (RBL) is facing an English club in a competitive fixture whilst we will be facing German opposition in the UCL round of 16 for the second consecutive season , after knocking out Borussia Dortmund 4-0 on aggregate in 2018/19.
The only previous game between us and a German team at our new stadium ended 7-2 win for Bayern Munich, back in October this season. Our two CL games against German opposition this season have produced 13 goals. Finalist in 2018/19, we are in the knock out stages of the CL for the 3rd consecutive season - we had only made it past the group stage once before (2010/11)
RBL have reached the CL knock out stages for the first time in their history. Wolfsburg are the last German team - outside of Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund - to make it past the round of 16, back in 2015/16
We conceded 14 goals in this season's CL group phase, the highest tally among the teams in the competition. Half of those goals came in our home game against Bayern Munich (2-7). Only one of our 21 Champions league home games has ended in a draw (0-0) v AC Milan, March 2011
