Tottenham – Eintracht

There will be a mutually productive meeting in London

English and German football will clash in the quarter-final stage of the Europa League. London Tottenham are having an extremely mediocre season, their fans are starting to forget that not so long ago Spurs were second in the Premier League and reached the Champions League final. Given Tottenham's current position in the league, the only reason why the management is not sacking Postecoglou is the club's participation in the Europa League play-offs. Surely, any other result of the team except for the victory in this tournament and the Champions League qualification, will lead to the resignation of the Australian manager. The situation at Eintracht is much more favourable. The German team occupies a decent position in the Bundesliga and reached the quarter-finals of the Europa League in the same breath. The last couple of months, the Frankfurt club often loses, but in London will definitely go not for a beautiful game, but for a concrete positive result. Bookmakers have identified the home team as the favourites for the upcoming meeting, offering odds of 1.76 on their victory. Tottenham made it to the Europa League play-offs without much difficulty. The Spurs avoided the knockout rounds by finishing in the top-8 of this stage of the tournament. The London club was only two points behind the winners of the general stage, but in the 1/8 finals did not have an easy walk. In the Netherlands, "Spurs" lost with a score of 0:1 AZ Alkmaar and had to home advantage with the necessary difference - 3:1. In the championship, the London team has long stopped demonstrating sane results, which turned out for him the current fourteenth place. In the last round of the Premier League "Spurs" broke a four-match winless streak, but beat Southampton, who had already been eliminated. Eintracht lost their last Bundesliga meeting, but the team's current third place in the league speaks volumes. In 2022, the rivals met in the Champions League: in London Tottenham won 3-2, in Frankfurt recorded a 0-0 draw. With the right attitude for the upcoming match, the German team will have chances not only to score, but also to draw or win.
