Tottenham and Manchester City came through potentially awkward ties against Eintracht Frankfurt and Galatasaray on Wednesday to secure their passage straight to the last 16 of the Champions League.
They now have a month or so to focus on domestic matters, starting with City's quest to avenge August's 2-0 home defeat to Thomas Frank's side.
That scoreline was also the result of the pair's midweek wins and might provide some guidance on how Sunday's meeting at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium will unfold.

Tottenham vs Manchester Citypreview
These are strange days at Tottenham. Wednesday's 2-0 win over Eintracht Frankfurt secured their passage into the last 16 of the Champions League but the fans are far from happy.
Finishing fourth in the European league phase means they now have a month to focus on domestic matters, and Sunday's visit from Manchester City is the first game of a ferocious February fixture list including a trip to Manchester United before hosting Newcastle and Arsenal.
Thomas Frank's position may become untenable by March 1's trip to Fulham, but it could have been so different.
Despite winning the Europa League, Ange Postecoglou lost his job after Spurs finished 17th in the league - and Frank's dynamic work at Brentford made him an obvious replacement.
August's 2-0 win at the Etihad earned early acclaim, but the praise was short-lived.
Anger is now simmering at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, and supporters are unimpressed by a record of two wins from 11 home league games.
City beat Galatasaray 2-0 in midweek and are also into the last 16 of the Champions League.
They have won to nil on their last two league visits to N17 and need to respond on the road after losing 2-0 at Old Trafford and 3-1 to Bodo/Glimt.
Micky van de Ven should return for Spurs but injuries continue to hinder Frank. Of August's starting line-up at the Etihad, five are unavailable, with four injured and opening goalscorer Brennan Johnson sold to Crystal Palace.
The Dane deserves credit for guiding Tottenham through the league phase of the Champions League. Conversely, the difficult schedule may give him more time, as the board would be unwilling to place any replacement under immediate pressure.
More boos may force their hand, and a City side who have won their last two games without conceding are unlikely to show the Dane much mercy.
Semenyo can haunt Spurs again
Tottenham were among the clubs interested in Antoine Semenyo before he joined City, and he has a recent history against Spurs, scoring the winner as Bournemouth beat them 3-2 on January 7.
The 26-year-old has scored five times in his last eight Premier League appearances and could trouble Tottenham again.
City to turn the tables
A repeat of the reverse fixture's 2-0 away win looks highly likely. Both clubs won by that scoreline on Wednesday, meaning that has been the outcome in two of Tottenham's last three matches and four of City's last five.
Key stats for Tottenham vs Manchester City
♦ Tottenham have won two of their last 14 league games
