What's Happening?
Tottenham Hotspur has been confirmed in Pot 3 for the upcoming Champions League group stage draw, scheduled to take place in Monaco. The Champions League has undergone a reformatting to the 'Swiss Model,' which changes the significance of pot placements. Tottenham will be drawn against two teams from each group, one home and one away. The draw will reveal Tottenham's eight opponents, with clubs from the same federation not allowed to face each other in the group stage. This means Tottenham cannot be drawn against fellow English clubs such as Arsenal, Manchester City, Chelsea, Liverpool, or Newcastle. The club's recent success in the Europa League, which they won last season, adds to their competitive edge as they prepare for the Champions League.
