Back in 1984, Real won 1-0 over two legs in the UEFA Cup quarter final. Spurs will be looking to avenge that defeat on Tuesday.Although they start as firm favourites, Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho has been downplaying his side's chances, and hoping for injured players to return for the London leg of the tie. With major players like Higuain, Ronaldo and Xabi Alonso all missing for the first leg, Spurs could have the chance to pull off an upset.As manager Harry Redknapp puts it, "I don't feel any pressure. No one expected us to be here at the start of the season and we have a big chance of winning."In the other game, Inter Milan will be keen to set right the 1997 UEFA cup final, which Schalke surprisingly won. This time around the Italians are favourites, but the Germans could yet pull off a surprise win against the champions.Book Champions League final tickets online today.
