Olympique Lyonnais vs Tottenham Hotspur 21-02-2013
information of Thursday's hotly-anticipated encounter between AC Milan vs FC Barcelona
Pre Match
Kick off : February 21, 2013 6:00 PM UTC
Venue : Stade de Gerland
City: Lyon
Referee: W. Stark
Competition : UEFA Europa League 2013
Lyon coach Remi Garde believes Samuel Umtiti's stunning goal in the first leg could prove crucial to their chances of making the next round.
"We know the away goal is very important," said Garde, who took over as Lyon boss in 2011.We need to be patient. We have 90 minutes to qualify. It will be difficult but we can try to close them down and try to cut out their speed. To be able to qualify in front of the home fans would be exciting. We won (4-0 against Bordeaux) last weekend so we have a better mentality now."
Tottenham are without their top scorer in the Europa League Jermain Defoe (ankle), while Younes Kaboul (knee) is still several weeks away from returning to first-team duty.
With Tom Huddlestone (knee) a doubt for the match and Brazilian enforcer Sandro (also knee) out for the remainder of the season, Scott Parker and Mousa Dembele are likely to continue in midfield.
Andre Villas-Boas may rotate his squad with one eye on Monday night's Premier League clash with West Ham, so Steven Caulker and Kyle Naughton could slot back into the defence.
