Jose Mourinho believes it is important for Tottenham to win their Europa League group.

Spurs secured their place in the knockout rounds with a 3-3 draw with LASK on Thursday.

They must now beat Royal Antwerp in the final group game next week to seal top spot.

"I think it's important," Mourinho said. "Look, if we have a problem in finishing second and getting anyone of the, let's say, strongest opponents, it's better not to be there.

"We shouldn't be afraid of anything but of course if we can finish first, and to finish first we just need to win our last match at home. It would give us probably a little bit of an advantage that we shouldn't waste.

"So we are qualified, we don't have that pressure of playing the last match and needing to win to qualify.

"But I think we should win that match, and I believe that we are going to do that."
