On Tuesday evening, from 20:00, Tottenham receives the visit of the Red Star Belgrade, in the third stage of the UEFA Champions League groups. Mauricio Pochettino’s students are not found internally, but hostilities in front of Serbs should dominate without problems.
The hosts are still unable to rely on Lo Celso and Sessegnon, and goalkeeper Lloris is unavailable for a longer period of time. Serbs come without Jovicic and hope to defend themselves well enough to get a point in London. In group B, Tottenham is last, with only one point in two matches (goal 4-9), and failure with Bayern (2-7) can hardly be forgotten. Moreover, Kane and Son’s band has only two successes in the last 11 official matches.
The Red Star has a victory and a failure so far, and the white-reds are in second place (3-4 goal), behind the leader Bayern Munich. The group also includes Olympiacos. If Spurs have only one success in the last five official matches, the Red Star looks much better in the championship: it comes after the victories with Macva (3-1), Napredak (1-0) and Red Belgrade (3-1), but also after an 8-0 with modest Trepca, in the Cup. Therefore, morale is excellent in the camp of Serbs.
Tottenham drew with Watford in the final stage of the championship, after Alli drew the tie in front of the London rival (1-1). Thus, Pochettino’s team continues the modest course, after defeating Brighton (0-3 in the championship) and Colchester (elimination in penalties, in the League Cup). Tottenham has a lot better than the Red Star, and victory is the only acceptable result for Tuesday’s favorites. We rely on comfortable English success.
