Tottenham Hotspur ambassador Ledley King hopes Jose Mourinho's Champions League experience can help his side past RB Leipzig in the last-16 stage.

Spurs drew Julien Nageslmann's team on Monday and will host the German club in the first leg onFebruary 19.

Having won the tournament twice, King thinks Mourinho's experience will count for something when the two sides meet.

"Having been a club that's been in the Champions League for the last five or six seasons, I'm hoping that we can use that experience to get through tasks like this against a team that are relatively new in the Champions League," King told BT Sport.

"It will be a tough task, but I'm quite confident that we can get through.

"The manager's been and done it, he's won the Champions League, and his experience will rub off on the players and hopefully help them through."

King added: "It's going to be a tough task. They're a good side, they play with a lot of pace and intensity, and they're a bit of a surprise package so far, so it'll be a tough game.

"You don't get much tougher than Bayern Munich, but going to Germany is tough in itself, and Leipzig are a good side, so it's one that we won't be taking lightly."
