Welcome to HotspurHQ’s live coverage of Tottenham’s trip to CSKA Moscow in the second round of Champions League Group E!

We’ve got lineup news incoming soon along with half-time analysis and final thoughts.

Before we get into all of that, let’s start with some light reading to take you into the game.

Alex Balano’s diligently covered the aftermath of Tottenham’s 2-1 win over Middlesbrough over the weekend, including a nice tidbit about how Heung-min Son’s finally found his rhythm.

Chris Nano speculated about newly minted starting striker Vincent Janssen’s fate at Tottenham as well. News that Harry Kane’s injury was better than first feared might compel the Dutchman to put on a show as soon as possible to prove his worth.

Mauricio Pochettino will be hoping that Middlesbrough result sets the tone for Tottenham’s trip to Moscow ahead of Tuesday afternoon’s match.

His team selection for Middlesbrough telegraphed who will likely be included in the starting XI for CSKA. We covered the probable line up here.

CSKA coach Leonid Slutsky knows his stuff, but whether he can hold Tottenham back for any meaningful result remains up for debate. Read our opposition scouting report on CSKA here.

Finally, this match will be won or lost in three key areas of the pitch. We broke them down for you here.
