Tottenham vs Barcelona Prediction & Betting tips
On Wednesday, the 03.10.2018, at 20:00 clock it comes in the context of the second game day of the UEFA Champions League to the duel between Tottenham and Barcelona. While the Spurs Inter Milan were beaten, Barcelona started with a successful 4-0 against PSV Eindhoven. Tottenham, Barcelona and Inter Milan will probably fight for the top two places. For this reason, the opening defeat hurts all the more from the point of view of the Lilywhites in the San Siro. Instead, Barcelona showed that the only way to win the group is through the Catalans.
Tottenham:
After a small earnings crisis, Tottenham recovered very well recently. An undeserved 1: 2 defeat in the Champions League against Inter Milan was followed by another defeat against Liverpool FC (1: 2). Then another bitter pill followed, as the Lilywhites had to beat Watford 1: 2 beaten. But then Tottenham went back up the aisle followed by three wins in a row. Watford was eliminated in the Carabao Cup on penalties and in the Premier League get two more hits in a row. 2: 0 against Huddersfield and 2: 1 against Brighton were the final results. The man of the hour is, how could it be otherwise, Harry Kane. In seven games he scored five goals and put on another. After all the ups and downs, the Spurs are now back in fourth place in the table. With a goal balance of 14: 7 15 points are in the account. It would seem logical for the tip to take a look at the home table. But Tottenham graduated only two home games and thus the conclusions would be heavily distorted. But if we did, Tottenham won a game and lost one.
Coach Pochettino will miss some important players in the match against Barca. Eriksen, Janssen, Alli, Aurier and the two goalkeepers Lloris and Vorm are out of action. Thus, the number three Gazzaniga is currently in goal.
Barcelona:
Ernesto Valverde is currently under enormous pressure. Barcelona play only 2: 2 against Girona, losing 2-1 to Leganes. It followed a 1-1 draw against Bilbao. Recently, he was accused that he no longer has a clear playful concept and rotates too often. So, according to the fans, it was a mistake in the game against Leganes on Suarez to refrain or in the match against Bilbao on Messi. The results press the critics. The last success Barca celebrated in the opening match of the Champions League against Eindhoven. An unchallenged 4-0 was recorded, although the result was a little too high, if you evaluate the performance of both teams over 90 minutes.
It is striking that Barcelona conceded eight goals in the league! This means eleventh place for the defensive. Barcelona have always conceded at least one goal in their last five La Liga games. Only due to the strong offensive and the failure of Real Madrid, they are still in first place of the table, tied with the Royal.
