Charlie Nicholas has offered his view on what Jose Mourinho will be planning for Tottenham ahead of their trip to Bayern Munich tomorrow night.
Spurs have locked up second place in Group B with one game to spare and cannot usurp Bayern, who defeated the Londoners 7-2 in the last match between the two sides in October.
That contest came whilst Mauricio Pochettino was still in charge and it was a hugely embarrassing night for last season's Champions League finalists.
But Arsenal great Nicholas believes that Mourinho will desperately want to win the clash in Germany despite not a lot riding on the encounter.
Nicholas is well aware that changes aplenty will be a guarantee but he insists that will not get in the way of Mourinho's desire to put one over on Bayern.
"Why wouldn't Jose Mourinho fancy this one? He got the defence sorted a bit better against Burnley, but the attackers were great. They do this naturally. He just needs to pick who is on form, the likes of Dele Alli, Heung-Min Son and Harry Kane, and off they go," Nicholas told Sky Sports.
"They were embarrassed by Bayern Munich last time and the Germans are through. They might want this, just in case they face off once again in the knockout stages, so they may want to humiliate them again.
"I think they will want to beat them and give them a nudge as to who is the bigger giant in Europe. Tottenham made the final last season so teams want to knock them down. Mourinho will fancy his side but he will make some changes."
Whilst Nicholas is backing Tottenham to put in a strong showing, he believes that Mourinho's men will lose 2-1 in Munich.
