On Thursday night, from 20:00, Tottenham and LASK Linz meet in the first stage of the UEFA Europa League groups, in a match that is announced to be clearly dominated by Jose Mourinho’s team. However, the English come after a big disappointment: they led West Ham to the end of the match with 3-0, but the “hammers” came back and snatched a draw, in the Premier League duel!
Tottenham approach the game without Lo Celso and Dier, but do not want to conceive wrong steps in the European cups. Antwerp and Ludogorets are also part of the London group, so the qualification mission should be solved fairly quickly by the white-blues. However, the morale of Mourinho’s team was damaged by this new “record” set: Spurs became the first Premier League team to miss the victory after leading 3-0 in the 80th minute!
It was for the third time in a row when Tottenham was involved in matches of a total show: over 5.5 goals, over 2.5 goals in the first half and an opening score in the first minutes! With a record of 12 wins and 2 draws in 15 home games in the UEL group stage, Tottenham could “take revenge” on LASK Linz, a rigid team that does not shine particularly brightly. The Austrian goal scorer is Marko Raguz, who will be received immediately by the powerful central defenders of Jose Mourinho.
LASK Linz advanced to the group stage in its first participation in the competition, but was eliminated by Manchester United with a definite 1-7 overall. The same Manchester United lost a week ago to Tottenham, score 1-6. However, LASK excelled in the UEL play-off, where they beat Sporting Lisbon with an unlikely 4-1. Thus, in his last three trips, at least two goals were scored each time in the first half, and the bet on the show has excellent odds on esforuna.ro, on Thursday evening. Harry Kane and Heung-Min Son are announced English starters and promise to wreak havoc on the opposing defense.
