Monaco midfielder Joao Moutinho has claimed his side will deliver under pressure as they prepare to play in front of 80,000 fans when they take on Tottenham on Wednesday night.

Spurs have relocated for their UEFA Champions League games to Wembley, as White Hart Lane continues to be upgraded.

Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino believes his team will excel at the national stadium but Moutinho has other ideas.

Monaco played Spurs in the Europa League last season, losing 4-1 at White Hart Lane but the Portugal international is confident the scoreline will favour them this time around.

“Each team has developed since then. It’s a different competition, a bigger competition, with different players,” he is quoted as saying by Sky Sports.

“Spurs might be slight favourites but this is a very equal group. Every team will fancy their chances to qualify and everyone wants to get through.

Every player in our team will have played in similar situations, in front of big crowds.

As players it’s something we love. “Most of the fans will be against us, we know that, and they will be for Spurs but this is only extra motivation.

We love that pressure and we know if we play 100 per cent with can come away with a positive result.

Why not a victory?” Moutinho, who nearly signed for Spurs in August 2012, will be expected to play a big role on Wednesday night.

Tottenham are the 1.83 favourites to win, with the draw priced at 3.75, while Monaco are available at odds of 4.75 with Dafabet.
