Former Slavia trainee Tomáš Pekhart, a forward, is also at Tottenham, signing a contract in March 2006. • Versatile central defender Marek Suchý also spent a spell on trial at Tottenham in 2006. • The two sides already knew each other well before the first leg, with Tottenham having knocked Slavia out of the first round of the 2006/07 UEFA Cup 2-0 on aggregate. Jermaine Jenas scored the winner in the first leg in Prague while Keane sealed a second 1-0 success at White Hart Lane. • Of the Slavia players who appeared in both of the previous matches against Tottenham many are still at the club, along with coach Karel Jarolím.
