LASK vs Tottenham Prediction & Betting tips
It is exciting in Group J of the Europa League. LASK Linz is currently on six points. That’s three less than Tottenham Hotspur has. On Thursday evening, these two teams will face each other in Linz.
LASK:
LASK Linz was disappointed last week. A week earlier, the Austrians had won 0-1 in their match against Antwerp, but at home LASK was surprisingly much less strong. Die Schwarz-Weißen barely showed good football, and after a red card, shortly after the break for defender Gernot Trauner, the assignment became very difficult. LASK fell behind via a free kick that changed direction, and in the final phase the margin was doubled by the Belgians. Perhaps this will prove to be an expensive goal against, since LASK is now at a disadvantage compared to Antwerp in the mutual result.
Last weekend Linz recovered well in the Austrian Bundesliga. At home, LASK defeated SCR Altach, where old acquaintance Alex Pastoor is the trainer. Johannnes Eggestein – brother of Werder Bremen’s Maximilian – had an important contribution to the 3-0 victory with a Doppelpack. He almost could have taken the ball home, had it not been for the fact that he missed a penalty in the first half. Captain Trauner has been suspended for Thursday’s game after his red card last week.
Tottenham Hotspur:
For a club like Tottenham Hotspur, the Europa League does not have the highest priority, especially at this stage of the season. Trainer Jose Mourinho tries to get through the group phase with the calculator in hand. Basic players regularly get a rest from the Portuguese, although he usually did not start with full B teams in the games so far. And even many reserve players of the Spurs are still of a higher level than most players of LASK, Antwerp and Ludogorets, the fourth team in this group.
The Bulgarians were the opponent of Tottenham in round three and four. The away game was won 1-3 by the Londoners. And last week the Spurs did not have a child from Ludogorets in their own stadium. It was won 4-0, partly due to two goals from newcomer Carlos Vinicius. Last Sunday, Tottenham delivered a solid game. Visiting fellow townsman Chelsea, Mourinho got the point he came for. The match, which was not too attractive, ended in a 0-0 draw. On Thursday, other players will probably get a starting place. The important league game against Arsenal awaits on Sunday.
