A lot can happen between now and mid Feb.
I remember last season Dortmund were in unstoppable form in December but by the time we played them in Feb they'd let a massive lead to Munich slip and we comfortably beat them 4-0
spurs have plenty of time to get their defence in order before these games.
but you better.

Any draw at this stage is difficult. Best 16 teams in Europe after all.
I just remember this time last year. We drew the run away German leaders ( with every man and his dog raving about Sancho ) and pundits writting us off, but we beat them comfortably. Certainly not saying will happen again, but this tie has got to be the best we could have hoped for. Particularly as it came down to a 50/50 between Leipzig and Barca who we could have got.
Final note on Sky. What a joke they are. Billed their programmer as "live CL draw" but just had three "experts" sitting in a studio watching the actual live draw on BT Sport, then relaying the result of each draw as if they "saw it first" So funny and armature.
Great draw for us - difficult game but winnable and there were plenty more teams we could have drawn that I would have liked to avoid at this stage.
Dortmund were top of the German League this time last year when the draw was made and we did them so I expect the same this time round. COYS !
Not easy, but no team in the last 16 is but give me Leipzig over Barca, Juve or PSG any day of the week. The thought of Mbappe up against our calamity defence terrifies me.

The thought of Victor Janssen against our defence terrifies me.
Should be a fun game. Worried about Werner.
Maybe Hugo will be fit for this?
RB Leipzig are currently top of Bundesliga. Their last match against Bayern Munich ended 1-1.
We have lost to Bayern 3-1 and 7-2.
They have a CF who will give our defense as much trouble as Traore did.
I think this will stretch Mourinho's talents to the limit, especially if he sticks with Dier.
It will be a tough match, but then all CL matches at this stage would be tough matches for us.
Can we win it? Yes....... but
we can lose it too, and probably will.
I would give odds of 5-3 against us winning.

Ted analysis can we win it yes, can we lose it yes. I never believed those outcomes were ever possible in any football match.
