Match backgroundAjax are well placed to reach a first UEFA Champions League final in 23 years as they welcome Tottenham holding anarrow lead from the first leg.

• Donny van de Beek's first-half goal was the difference between the sides in the first game in north London, givingAjax a precious advantage to take back to Amsterdam.

• Of the 17 sides who have lost the home first leg of a semi-final in the UEFA Champions League era, only one hasrecovered to win on aggregate – Ajax themselves, against Panathinaikos in 1995/96 (0-1 home, 3-0 away). That isonly one of four instances when a team has gone through after losing at home in the first leg of a UEFA ChampionsLeague tie, though two of them happened this season.

• Both sides have ended long waits to make it to this stage. While the most recent of Ajax's eight European Cup semi-finals came in 1997, Spurs have featured in the competition's last four only once previously – 57 years ago, in theirdebut season of European competition.

• Ajax have ousted holders Real Madrid and Italian champions Juventus in this season's knockout rounds, while Spurshave made it to the semi-finals by beating Borussia Dortmund and Manchester City.

Previous meetings• The teams have met in only one previous European tie, Spurs winning 6-1 on aggregate in the 1981/82 EuropeanCup Winners' Cup first round.

• Goals from Glenn Hoddle, Mark Falco and Ricardo Villa helped the English club to a 3-1 first-leg win in Amsterdam,the home side's sole response coming from Søren Lerby.

• Falco was again on target in the return at White Hart Lane, scoring the second goal in a 3-0 home win with TonyGalvin and Osvaldo Ardiles also on target.

• Spurs went on to reach the semi-finals of that season's European Cup Winners' Cup, eventually losing 2-1 onaggregate to Barcelona.

Form guideAjax• Ajax's record in European Cup semi-finals is W6 L2:1968/69: W 3-2 Spartak Trnava (3-0 h, 0-2 a)1970/71: W 3-1 Atlético Madrid (0-1 a, 3-0 h)1971/72: W 1-0 Benfica (1-0 h, 0-0 a)1972/73: W 3-1 Real Madrid (2-1 h, 1-0 a)1979/80: L 1-2 Nottingham Forest (0-2 a, 1-0 h)1994/95: W 5-2 Bayern München (0-0 a, 5-2 h)1995/96: W 3-1 Panathinaikos (0-1 h, 3-0 a)1996/97: L 2-6 Juventus (1-2 h, 1-4 a)

• One of Ajax's two European Cup semi-final defeats came against English opponents, Nottingham Forest – then theholders – beating them in the last four in 1980 en route to retaining the trophy.

• Ajax's home record at this stage of the European Cup is therefore W6 L2; they won the first six such matches buthave lost the last two.

• Ajax's last experience of English opposition before this tie came in the 2016/17 UEFA Europa League final, whenthey lost 2-0 to Manchester United at Sweden's Friends Arena. Including the first leg of this tie, that is their only defeatin their last five matches against English clubs (W3 D1).

• Ajax's last home game against Premier League opposition was a 3-1 defeat of Manchester City in the 2012/13 UEFAChampions League group stage – their first win in five matches (D1 L3) – with Christian Eriksen, now of Tottenham,scoring the third goal. Ajax had won four of their first five home games with English clubs, drawing the other.

• Ajax have won only one of their four fixtures at home to London sides (D1 L2) – the first, a 2-1 defeat of Arsenal inthe 1971/72 European Cup quarter-final.

• Ajax claimed their first European Cup in London, beating Panathinaikos 2-0 in the 1971 final at Wembley.

• Ajax's record in two-legged ties against English clubs is W3 L4; they have lost the last four, most recently againstManchester United in the 2011/12 UEFA Europa League round of 32.

• The Dutch club were without a win in seven UEFA Champions League knockout phase fixtures (D2 L5), since a 3-2victory at Atlético Madrid in the 1996/97 quarter-final second leg that completed a 4-3 aggregate success, before this

season's knockout rounds, when they have won at Real Madrid (4-1), Juventus (2-1) and now Tottenham.

• Those victories made Ajax the third team to win all three away games in the UEFA Champions League knockoutrounds, after Bayern München in 2012/13 and Real Madrid in 2017/18 – who both went on to win the trophy.

• Ajax have not won any of their last seven home UEFA Champions League knockout phase matches (D4 L3), mostrecently beating Borussia Dortmund 1-0 in the 1995/96 quarter-final second leg (3-0 aggregate). In this season'scompetition, they have lost to Real Madrid (1-2) and drawn with Juventus (1-1). However, Ajax have won all threeUEFA Champions League knockout phase ties in which they have played the second leg at home.

• The Amsterdammers have lost only one of their 17 European matches in 2018/19 (W10 D6) – the round of 16 first-leg defeat at home to Madrid. They won their first five home games this season but are without a victory in three,drawing with Bayern München on matchday six (3-3) and Juventus either side of the loss to Madrid.

• Ajax are the sole side still involved who came through qualifying. They are the first side in European Cup history toreach the semi-finals having come through three qualifying rounds.

• Ajax are the first Dutch club to have reached the UEFA Champions League semi-finals since PSV in 2004/05.

• Ajax have won 25 of the 27 UEFA competition ties in which they won the away first leg. One of those two defeats didcome after a 1-0 away success, however, against Dinamo Zagreb in the 2007/08 UEFA Cup first round (2-3 home); ofthe five ties in which they won 1-0 away in the first match, that is their sole aggregate defeat.

• Ajax's record in six UEFA penalty shoot-outs is W1 L5:3-5 v Levski Sofia, 1975/76 UEFA Cup third round0-3 v Juventus, 1977/78 European Champion Clubs' Cup quarter-final 2-4 v Bohemians Praha, 1984/85 UEFA Cup second round4-3 v Grêmio, 1995 European/South American Cup2-4 Juventus, 1995/96 UEFA Champions League final2-4 v Steaua Bucureşti, 2012/13 UEFA Europa League round of 32

Spurs• Spurs were beaten in their only previous European Cup semi-final:1961/62: L 3-4 Benfica (1-3 a, 2-1 h)

• Tottenham are the seventh English club to reach the UEFA Champions League semi-finals, an outright competitionrecord that was previously shared with Spain. They are the only one of the four semi-finalists yet to win the EuropeanCup – or indeed reach the final.

• Tottenham had already faced Dutch opposition this season before the first leg, taking four points from their twogroup games against PSV Eindhoven (2-2 away, 2-1 home) with Harry Kane scoring three of their four goals. The firstleg against Ajax ended a six-match unbeaten run against Eredivisie clubs (W4 D2), and was their first defeat since a1-0 loss at home to PSV in the 2007/08 UEFA Cup round of 16 first leg.

• Spurs went on to lose that 2008 tie on penalties despite a 1-0 away win in the second leg, giving them the overallrecord W3 L3 in two-legged aggregate contests against Dutch teams.

• The London club are unbeaten in their last four trips to the Netherlands (W2 D2), drawing the last two.

• Overall, Spurs' record away to Dutch clubs is W5 D2 L2. One of those two defeats came against Feyenoord in the1973/74 UEFA Cup final, the Rotterdam outfit winning 2-0 in the home second leg and 4-2 on aggregate.

• Tottenham's away record in the UEFA Champions League knockout rounds is W2 D1 L2; in this season's knockoutrounds, they won 1-0 at Borussia Dortmund (4-0 aggregate) before the 4-3 loss at Manchester City (4-4 aggregate,Spurs won on away goals). This is the third tie in a row in which they have been away in the second leg.

• This season, Mauricio Pochettino's side picked up only two points on their travels in Group B, losing 2-1 at Interbefore draws at PSV (2-2) and Barcelona (1-1). The latter result, on matchday six, helped them overtake Inter tosnatch second place behind Barça; Spurs had only one point after three matches.

• The Lilywhites have won just five of their last 20 European away matches (D7 L8).

• This is Tottenham's most successful UEFA Champions League campaign; their previous best came in 2010/11,when they reached the quarter-finals.

• Tottenham have lost all three UEFA competition ties in which they were beaten in the home first leg, most recentlyagainst Benfica in the 2013/14 UEFA Europa League round of 16 (1-3 home, 2-2 away). The other two home first-legdefeats were both via a 1-0 scoreline, against PSV in the 2007/08 UEFA Cup round of 16 (1-0 away, 5-6 penalties)and Real Madrid in the 1984/85 UEFA Cup quarter-finals (0-0 away). They have therefore never lost the second legafter a first-leg home defeat.

Competition factsUEFA Champions League: Did you know?Overall records• In 2012/13, Chelsea became the first defending champions to fail to get through a group stage since the UEFAChampions League began. (This record, like the others, includes the seasons between 1999/2000 and 2002/03 thatfeatured a second group stage). In 1992/93, Barcelona were the reigning European Champion Clubs' Cup holders andlost 4-3 on aggregate in the second round to CSKA Moskva.

• In 2016/17 Real Madrid became the first team to successfully defend the UEFA Champions League trophy, with ACMilan (1989, 1990) the previous club to win consecutive European Cups. Milan (1994, 1995), Ajax (1995, 1996),Juventus (1996, 1997) and Manchester United (2008, 2009) have all returned to the UEFA Champions League finalas holders only to lose.
