Tottenham predicting fireworks in Sevilla cup cracker

TOTTENHAM sporting director Damien Comolli predicted a “spectacular” UEFA Cup quarter-final after Spurs were paired with holders Sevilla.

Comolli believes both teams are peaking at the right time ahead of the last-eight tie. Spurs will travel to Spain for the first leg on April 5 before Sevilla, who brushed aside Middlesbrough in last year’s final, visit London a week later.

Comolli said: “It’s a difficult draw but any draw would have been difficult. What we wanted was to play the second leg at home and that’s what we have. It’s going to be a spectacular game because there are two attacking teams with great forward players.
