Jose Mourinho is hopeful that his side can benefit from a free midweek when Manchester United visit on Sunday afternoon.

Spurs have not had the luxury of a full week on the training ground ahead of a Premier League game this season because of their Europa League and Carabao Cup commitments.

But their embarrassing demise to Dinamo Zagreb in the last 16 does now mean the majority of their remaining games this season come on the back of a free week.

"So I'm not going concerned. And I don't want my players (to be concerned). They have to go to a football match with positive feelings, enjoying the game, enjoying the dimension and the difficulty of the game.

"Coping with the responsibility. Coping with the pressure, good pressure. So that's what I want. I want to be positive and happy to play against such a giant club, and such a good team.

"And of course with the ambition to win the points, because the points, when the game starts, the points are going to be there on the grass, and we are going to play for the points."
