Spurs face their toughest test of the season as they travel to Champions League holder, Real Madrid.

High-flying Spurs have been in fantastic form thus far, winning their opening two games.

They have put themselves in the best possible shape to take on the La Liga giants over the next two gameweeks.

Tottenham will be hoping that Harry Kane can once again be their match winner after he netted a perfect hattrick in their win against Apoel.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid currently sit in fifth place in La Liga, but won their last game against Espanol, with the impressive Isco netting a brace.

Spurs, of course, will be wary of one Cristiano Ronaldo, who will be buoyed by his country’s recent qualification to the World Cup.
