Champions League Group A: Werder Bremen vs Inter Milan When these two sides met in Italy earlier in the competition Inter Milan secured a comfortable 4-0 win. However, history is unlikely to repeat itself in this, the final round of group matches. Inter have already qualified from group A alongside Tottenham but they will be keen to try to secure top spot in the hope of getting a more generous draw in the knockout phase.

Roma have a point to prove but Basle will be brimming with confidence after a brilliant result...

This week sees the return fixture and once again promises to be the one to watch. Harry Redknapp’s Spurs side will have learnt a lot from their embarrassing first half in Italy and are unlikely to be rolled over with such ease again. Whether they can win though remains a long...
