Eintracht Frankfurt v Tottenham: UEFA Europa League Friday Preview

A big performance will be required from Ange Postecoglou’s Tottenham Hotspur as they head to Eintracht Frankfurt for the UEFA Europa League quarter-final second leg on Friday morning.

Goals from Hugo Ekitike and Pedro Porro at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium mean this tie is hanging in the balance at 1-1 after the first leg in north London.

Deutsche Bank Park is no easy place for opposition teams to go to in the UEFA Europa League and Spurs are likely to need one of their performances of the season if they are to continue their European journey into the semi-finals.

Spurs must reach new heights

Tottenham’s woes in the Premier League continued last weekend as Spurs were on the wrong end of a 4-2 scoreline at Wolverhampton Wanderers.

With just two wins in their last nine games in all competitions, pressure has been mounting on Australian tactician Postecoglou, with his side languishing down in 15th place in the table.

The UEFA Europa League has been a welcomed distraction for Spurs this season and they have done well to reach the last eight of the competition.

To see the journey end on Friday and effectively end any meaningful games this season, would be a hammer blow to the club and Postecoglou.

Tottenham’s destiny is of course still in their own hands and they are 2.80 to claim the win in 90 minutes to see them through to the semi-finals.

Frankfurt hot at home

Deutsche Bank Park has been a fortress for Frankfurt this season and is the reason they have reached this stage of the UEFA Europa League and why they are sitting up in third on the Bundesliga ladder.

When it comes to the UEFA Europa League, Frankfurt are unbeaten in their last 12 home games in the competition, winning their last four on their own patch without conceding a goal.

Winning this tournament in the 2021/22 season, Die Adler know what it takes to go all the way in the UEFA Europa League and they are 2.30 to win on Friday morning against Spurs.
