Tottenham take on the visitors Sporting in the round 5 match of UEFA Champions League group stage. The match will be played on Wednesday, October 26th at Tottenham Hotspurs Stadium (London).
Tottenham returned to the top 4 of the English Premier League at the end of last season. Antonio Conte confirmed his high class, having coped with a very difficult task - we remember that he came during the season. And now, in the domestic arena, Spurs are not bad either. But the Duke also has a not so pleasant feature: his wards are consistently unsuccessful in European competitions. And now there are many questions for the British. It seems that, if you look at the score, it turned out to start with a confident 2-0. But Richarlison completed his "double" already when "Marseille" was left with ten men. However, with Eintracht, in the last round, it turned out to win again in London - 3-2. But away, the Hotspurs are much worse. In Lisbon in September they lost 0-2. And in Germany, in Frankfurt am Main, everything ended in a goalless draw. However, if they win now, the Spurs de facto guarantee themselves a place in the playoffs.

Sporting Lisbon recently reached the championship title for the first time in a long time. Another achievement of Ruben Amorim can be called the fact that in the last Champions League draw, his wards managed to overtake Borussia Dortmund in the race for 2nd place. But now the “lions” are frankly not impressive. And everywhere - in their native Primeira they go lower than everyone is used to. The Champions League was off to a great start. First, the club defeated the debutant of the tournament, Eintracht, and on the road - the match in Frankfurt am Main ended 3-0 in favor of the guests. After that, 2-0 win with the Spurs was taken at home. But then Sporting managed to completely fail with Marseille. At first, Adan did a trick, and, having opened the scoring in France, his team lost 1-4. And then there was no less unexpected 0-2 in favor of the visitors in the last round.
On September 13, the teams held an official match for the first time. Before that, there was only a friendly match in the summer of 2010. Then the teams were able to exchange goals and ended up with a final score of 2-2. Bookmakers believe that Tottenham will be able to take revenge on the Portuguese for the offensive defeat in early autumn. Given the fact that Kane and company are good in the Champions League at home, we recommend betting on Spurs to win with a handicap of "-1 goal".
Prediction for the match: Tottenham to win with -1.0 handicap.
