Mauricio Pochettino expecting "difficult" Astreas Tripolis test

Mauricio Pochettino believes that Tottenham Hotspur will face a "different" Astreas Tripolis side this evening compared to the one they beat 5-1 two weeks ago.

Tottenham Hotspur manager Maurico Pochettino has warned his players to expect a "very difficult game" against Asteras Tripolis in the Europa League this evening.

Spurs comfortably saw off the Greek side 5-1 when they last met two weeks ago, although they travel to Tripoli without a string of key players, including Emmanuel Adebayor, Younes Kaboul, Aaron Lennon and Kyle Naughton.

"Every game is different, a different moment," Pochettino is quoted as saying by ESPN. "We know Asteras at home is a difficult team, a strong team.

"Their supporters are brave and we expect a very, very difficult game. Different, sure, to what we played in London. It will be a very important game for Asteras Tripolis, but don't forget we also want the three points."

Spurs are currently second in Group C, one point ahead of tonight's opponents.
