Tottenham Hotspur vs Slavia Prague

Tottenham Hotspur continue their push for the automatic places when they host Slavia Prague in the league phase of the UEFA Champions League.

Spurs have done some decent work at home lately and will be feeling confident heading into this clash. They should get the better of the visitors, who are still without a win in the competition.

Tottenham Hotspur News

Tottenham Hotspur are enjoying a decent league phase campaign, having lost just once in five matches. However, that defeat came in their previous fixture, a 5-3 loss at champions PSG.

The good news for Tottenham is that they are back home on Tuesday and are unbeaten in six of their last nine matches in front of their fans. Thomas Frank's team claimed a 2-0 home victory over Brentford in an English Premier League clash last weekend.

Tottenham have scored over 1.5 goals in three of their last four matches across all competitions, while six of their last seven fixtures produced over 2.5 goals. However, they are unconvincing at the back and are also without a clean sheet in six of those seven fixtures.

Slavia Prague News

Slavia Prague have struggled to match the quality in the competition and are without a win after five matches. They were held to a 0-0 home draw by Athletic Bilbao in their previous league phase fixture.

The conundrum for Slavia Prague is to transmit their domestic form into the Champions League, having done well in the Czech Liga this season. Jindrich Trpisovsky's team will travel to London off the back of a 2-1 victory at Teplice in a domestic fixture last weekend.

Slavia Prague have scored in their last three away matches, with all three fixtures producing over 2.5 goals. However, they have failed to keep a clean sheet in four of their last six matches across all competitions.

Head to Head

Tottenham have never lost in this fixture, with three wins and a draw from four previous matches against Slavia Prague. The last meeting was a UEFA Europa League clash in 2008, with both teams battling to a 1-1 draw.

Verdict

Tottenham v Slavia Prague

Tottenham often look sharp in attack, and having scored over 1.5 goals in three of their last four home matches, a repeat could be considered. Both teams are vulnerable at the back and could be tipped to score on Tuesday.

The hosts should get the better of Slavia Prague, who are winless in the competition. With an open contest expected here, a home win and over 2.5 goals could be on the cards.
