Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou is under increasing pressure after a torrid season, with his side currently 13th in the Premier League table.
European glory is all that remains but an abject Spurs lost 1-0 to AZ last week, leaving them with a mountain to climb if they are to reach the quarter-finals of this competition.
While Tottenham certainly have the quality to turn the game around, little about what they’ve managed to do on a consistent basis this season will raise any hope that can genuinely happen.
It’s a huge game for Postecoglou, arguably the biggest in his tenure at the club. With that in mind, here’s a look at all you need to know.
Date, kick-off time and venue
Tottenham vs AZ Alkmaar is scheduled for an 8pm GMT kick-off time on Thursday 13 March, 2025.
The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London will host.

Ben Davies could return to the squad, while all of Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven, Destiny Udogie, James Maddison and Heung-min Son are in line to start.
Postecoglou will also likely address the latest with Richarlison’s fitness when speaking to the media later this week.
Tottenham vs AZ Alkmaar prediction
Hardened Spurs supporters may be wary about confidently backing the team this season but they should surely have enough at home.
That’s not to do Alkmaar any disservice and they certainly deserve their lead but Spurs can hardly play worse than they did out in the Netherlands.
With key players finally back in action and having had some minutes under their belt, it would be a surprise not to see Spurs progress.
