Betting on Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham needs to quickly turn the page on its poor shape when it put their Champions League survival on the line in front of its home fans. In addition to its defeat two weeks ago against AC Milan, the Spurs were knocked out in the round of 16 of the FA Cup by Sheffield United and are coming off a Premier League loss to Wolverhampton.
The good news for the team is that it went undefeated at home in the Champions League group stage and has won three straight matches at home in the Premier League. It is also fifth in home goals scored with 26 and has conceded just 15 goals.
Possible Lineup (3-4-2-1): Fraser Forster; Cristian Romero, Eric Dier, Clement Lenglet; Emerson Royal, Oliver Skipp, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Ivan Perisic; Dejan Kulusevski, Heung-Min Son; Harry Kane.
Betting on AC Milan
The reigning Italian champion needs to hold on to the lead it gained in the first leg if the team does not want its season to turn into a failure.
Away from the Serie A lead due to only three wins in the last nine games, Stefano Pioli’s men are 18 points off the top spot and currently sit fifth in the Europa League standings.
That is why it is essential for them to come out on top in England, taking into account that they have not been able to perform well away from home. In the group stage they lost 3-0 away to Chelsea, while in the local championship they have just one win in their last six away games, with three defeats and two draws.
Possible Lineup (3-4-2-1): Mike Maignan; Pierre Kalulu, Fikayo Tomori, Malick Thiaw; Junior Messias, Charles De Ketelaere, Sandro Tonali, Theo Hernandez; Brahim Diaz, Divock Origi; Olivier Giroud.
JefeBet Prediction
Both teams have important absentees for a match that promises to be equally, if not more, tight than the first leg in Italy.
Milan achieved a good result, but it is coming off the back of an away loss to Fiorentina and could be without first game scorer Brahim Diaz due to knee problems, as well as Frenchman Olivier Giroud.
On Tottenham’s side, the team needs to get its effectiveness back in front of goal after two official matches without scoring. This despite having the Premier League’s second-highest scorer, Harry Kane, in their ranks.
With possible absentees in the Rossoneri squad and Spurs’ attacking issues, the defenses, which are going through a good spell, should have a great afternoon. Tottenham’s has not allowed more than one goal in its last five matches, and Milan’s has allowed just two goals in one of its last six games.
Prediction: Under (TOT 1 – MIL 1).
