MATCHUP TO WATCH
Midfielder Eriksen has to step up as Harry Kane and Son are missing from the squad. The Danish international is the player to create the game and his ability to assist as in the first match can lead Spurs to the final.

Ajax winger Dusan Tadic is the player making the difference to a young squad. The Serbian has scored decisive goals and assisted also to his teammates, meaning the Tottenham defense will have problems stopping him.
