Previous meetings • Monaco struck back to draw 1-1 on matchday two in the sides' first UEFA competition meeting. • Claudio Ranieri's Monaco beat a Tottenham team led by André Villas-Boas 5-2 in a pre-season friendly in August 2013. Andrea Raggi, Lucas Ocampos, Radamel Falcao (2) and Mounir Obbadi were the Monaco scorers, Harry Kane and Andros Townsend on target for the visitors. • Tottenham's record in seven matches against French opposition is W3 D3 L1 (W3 D0 L0 at home). All those home victories were by one-goal margins. • Monaco's record in 13 games against English clubs is W6 D4 L3 (W3 D2 L1 in England). They eliminated Spurs' north London rivals Arsenal FC from last season's UEFA Champions League round of 16, winning 3-1 in London and proceeding on away goals despite a 2-0 home defeat. Form guide • Tottenham have won both of their European home matches this term, and are unbeaten in seven UEFA fixtures at White Hart Lane (W5 D2) since a 3-1 loss to SL Benfica in March 2014. • Monaco have drawn both of their Group J away games 1-1. • Spurs have now made it through seven of their eight UEFA Cup and UEFA Europa League group stage campaigns – missing the cut in 2011/12. • Monaco were successful in their only previous UEFA Cup or UEFA Europa League group campaign, progressing to the round of 32 in 2005/06. Trivia and links • The journey from Monaco to London is just over 1,000km. • Monaco's Ricardo Carvalho (Chelsea FC, 2004–10) and Marcos Lopes (Manchester City FC, 2013–15) have played in England. Midfielder Mario Pašalić is on loan from Chelsea. • Spurs' French international goalkeeper Hugo Lloris knows Monaco well from his time with OGC Nice and Olympique Lyonnais. Their Algerian midfielder Nabil Bentaleb was also born in France. • Young Tottenham forward Clinton Njié began his career in France with Lyon. • The two clubs have some notable former players in common: Glenn Hoddle, Dimitar Berbatov, Jürgen Klinsmann and Emmanuel Adebayor. The coaches • Mauricio Pochettino has been manager of Tottenham since 2014, the former RCD Espanyol and Paris Saint- Germain defender brought to London after an impressive 18 months at Southampton FC. The 43-year-old was capped 20 times by Argentina, featuring at the 2002 FIFA World Cup. • Venezuela-born Leonardo Jardim, 41, has been Monaco boss since 2014. A coach from his mid-20s onwards, he managed SC Beira-Mar and SC Braga in the Portuguese top flight, then tried his luck in Greece with Olympiacos FC before earning a second-placed Liga finish with a young Sporting Clube de Portugal side in 2013/14. 4 Tottenham Hotspur FC - AS Monaco FC Thursday 10 December 2015 - 21.05CET (20.05 local time) Match press kit White Hart Lane, London Team facts Tottenham Hotspur FC Formed: 1882 Nickname: Spurs UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • UEFA Cup (2): 1972, (1974), 1984 • UEFA Cup Winners' Cup (1): 1963 Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) League title: 2 (1961) FA Cup: 8 (1991) League Cup: 4 (2008) Ten-year record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless indicated otherwise) 2014/15: round of 32 2013/14: round of 16 2012/13: quarter-finals 2011/12: group stage 2010/11: UEFA Champions League quarter-finals 2009/10: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2008/09: round of 32 2007/08: round of 16 2006/07: quarter-finals 2005/06: did not take part in UEFA club competition Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 9-0: Tottenham v Keflavík 28/09/71, UEFA Cup first round second leg • Biggest away win 0-6: Drogheda United FC v Tottenham 14/09/83, UEFA Cup first round first leg • Heaviest home defeat 1-3: Tottenham v SL Benfica 13/03/14, UEFA Europa League round of 16 first leg 0-2: Tottenham v FC Luzern 25/06/95, UEFA Intertoto Cup group stage • Heaviest away defeat 8-0: 1.
