League Group J fixture on Thursday.
Welsh full-back Ben Davies said Tottenham are aiming to win
the Europa League this season.
Tottenham are competing in UEFA's second-tier club
competition for a fifth consecutive campaign as the Premier
League side prepare to face Monaco in Group J action on
Thursday after defeating Qarabag 3-1 last time out.
Lifting the Europa League trophy guarantees a spot in the
Champions League the following season, as seen with title
holders Sevilla this term.
Speaking ahead of Tottenham's clash at Stade Louis II, Davies
told the club's official website: "We looked at the teams in the
group and the standard is very strong and that's before the
Champions League teams come down.
"We know what a challenge it is but our aim remains to go as
far as we can and hopefully win the competition, but we realise
how tough that will be.
"There are lots of good teams involved including Monaco and if
we want to progress, we have to go out and do well against
them. It will be difficult over there, we're aware of that but we
have to look at it that we're a good side as well and we have to
go out and show what we can do."
