Tottenham mark their return to the Champions League with a Group D clash against Ligue 1 giants Marseille on Wednesday evening. Eintracht Frankfurt and Sporting Lisbon complete the group after Antonio Conte's men pipped Arsenal to the fourth spot in last season's Premier League.
Spurs have made a decent start on the domestic front, just one point off leaders Arsenal after a 2-1 win over Fulham on Saturday, with Richarlison assisting Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg's goal and Harry Kane also finding the back of the net.
It was the sixth consecutive home win for the English side, while Igor Tudor's side have recorded four Ligue 1 wins on the trot to keep pace with leaders Paris Saint-Germain.

Team News
Tottenham Hotspur: Bryan Gil and Lucas Moura's injury concerns have been compensated by the returns of Rodrigo Bentancur and Cristian Romero in the Fulham win.
Barcelona loanee Clement Lenglet's Champions League experience may help him keep his place in the XI but it's a big decision for Conte to make between Richarlison and Dejan Kulusevski going forward while Son Heung-min has also had a bit of a slow start in the new season.
Marseille: It looks like a depleted line-up for the visitors as Dimitri Payet has a calf problem and Alexis Sanchez is suspended, while forwards Cedric Bakambu and Bamba Dieng are left out of the trip to London after failed transfer moves.
Sead Kolasinac is expected to start in place of Samuel Gigot in defence, with Matteo Guendouzi possibly reclaiming his place in the XI from Cengiz Under, while Luis Suarez should get the nod in attack.
Prediction: Both teams have enjoyed a great start to their new campaign and will look to get their rivalry under way with a win.
Marseille have kept clean sheets in their last two away games in Ligue 1 and are expected to keep a tight ship at the back. Payet and Sanchez's absence could be a blow for them, but given the form of the two teams, a draw might ensue.
Score Prediction: Tottenham Hotspur 1 - 1 Marseille
