RB Leipzig goalkeeper, Peter Gulasci, has expressed hope that his club can beat Tottenham Hostspur when they meet in Wednesday’s last 16 match in the Champions League.

“It’s a new experience to play against an English side. It’s a big opportunity and a big test,” Gulacsi told AFP.

“If we have a good day, maybe we could surprise them.”

While Jose Mourinho’s Tottenham sit fifth in the Premier League, Leipzig head to London in the midst of a battle at the top of the Bundesliga with Bayern Munich, with whom they drew 0-0 earlier this month.

“It’s going to be two difficult games, but this is what you look forward to,” Gulacsi said of the Spurs tie. “These are the games we have been fighting to play in.”

The last-16 showdown is the latest step in Leipzig’s rise over the last decade since starting in Germany’s fifth tier in 2009.

Gulacsi joined from Red Bull Salzburg in 2015, and the club won promotion to the top tier in his first season.

In their debut campaign in the elite, Leipzig shook up the established order, briefly going top before finishing second behind Bayern.

Now they are enjoying their second Champions League campaign, with ambitious 32-year-old coach Julian Nagelsmann steering Leipzig to the last 16 for the first time in his debut season in charge.

Leipzig’s success has been built around a core of key players.

Along with Gulacsi, Sweden winger Emil Forsberg, Denmark’s Yussuf Poulsen, Austrian winger Marcel Sabitzer and Germany full-backs Lukas Klostermann and Marcel Halstenberg played for the club in the second division and have gone on to establish themselves at international level.

“If you look at the team, there has been a lot of changes, but we had a group of six, seven players who provided the base we have built on,” said Gulacsi.

“The team has grown, the city is buzzing about football.

“It’s a continuity, we are trying to go step by step and I am happy to be part of that.”

Wednesday’s game will be a return to England for Gulacsi, who left home-town club MTK Budapest to join Liverpool in 2007 as a raw 17-year-old.

He spent six years with Liverpool, yet never made a competitive appearance with Pepe Reina the incumbent goalkeeper.

Instead, Gulacsi learnt his trade on loan at lower-league sides Hereford United, Tranmere Rovers and Hull City.
