Tottenham hosts Dinamo Zagreb in the first leg of the Europa League 1/8 finals. The match will be played on Thursday, March 11th at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium (London)
Tottenham is one of those clubs that set itself the task of getting into the Champions League. To achieve its goal, the club needs to get into the top four of the Premier League standings. Yes, it is very difficult, but quite possible. The Spurs are seventh in the standings, lagging five points behind the coveted zone and having a game in hand. The team is now in good shape - it won the last four matches in all tournaments. Tottenham will probably fight for victory in the Europa League because this is a backup plan to get into the Champions League.

Dinamo Zagreb showed an excellent game in the Europa League group stage and confidently took first place. The team played brilliantly in defense, conceding only one goal in six matches. In the 1/16 finals, the Croats knocked out Krasnodar, which was beaten twice (2-3 away and 1:0 at home). Dinamo is on a streak of eight consecutive victories, although the matches of the Croatian championship should not be taken seriously. In the home arena, the club is in the lead, but the gap from the pursuer is only two points.
Opponents crossed paths only once in their history. It happened back in 2008, within the framework of an analog of the Europa League. Then the teams played one game in the group stage, and the Londoners defeated the opponent with a score of 4 0. As for the upcoming game, the advantage of the Spurs is obvious because it is impossible to compare the opponents in terms of lineups. That is why the hosts are the favorites of the upcoming match and the confrontation as a whole. However, Dinamo Zagreb is a brazen team (in a good way) that can create difficulties even for a club of this level. So, we consider it acceptable to bet on the home team to win with a -1 handicap.
Prediction for the match: Tottenham to win with -1.0 handicap
