Eintracht Frankfurt vs Tottenham Hotspur
UEFA Champions League, KO: 20:00 Oct 4, 2022, Deutsche Bank Park.
TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR will be looking to get their Champions League group stage campaign back on track when they travel to Eintracht Frankfurt on Tuesday night.
Antonio Conte’s team marked their return to Europe’s elite club competition with a hard-fought 2-0 win over Marseille, on a night where my recommended bet landed in North London.
However, the Lilywhites suffered a 2-0 loss in Portugal at Sporting Lisbon on matchday two and they can ill-afford a similar performance at Deutsche Bank Park.
Spurs’ preparations for this clash were far from ideal, as their unbeaten start to the Premier League season was brought to an abrupt end in a 3-1 loss at arch-rivals Arsenal on Saturday.
As for Frankfurt, they were swept aside 3-0 by Sporting Lisbon on the opening night of the group stages before earning a hard-fought 1-0 win at Marseille.
Oliver Glasner’s side will go into this game in good spirits after claiming the scalp of Bundesliga leaders Union Berlin in a 2-0 success on Saturday, a result that saw the Eagles rise to fifth-place in the table in the process.
Outright Betting
Despite winning each of their last three matches across all competitions, Eintracht Frankfurt enter this fixture as 13/5 (Bet 365) underdogs while the draw is also deemed unlikely at 5/2 (Bet 365) with the same firm.
Tottenham, who are facing Frankfurt for the first time in three decades, arrive in Germany as 21/20 favourites with Bet 365.
Betting Angles
It’s difficult to have complete trust in Tottenham at the aforementioned price but backing the visitors to score two or more goals looks like an enticing alternative at even-money at PaddyPower.
While Spurs have made a mixed start to life in Group D, Antonio Conte has a plethora of excellent attacking players that should pose the hosts with plenty of problems.
That is evidenced by the fact that Tottenham are currently the third-top scorers in the Premier League, not to mention they have scored in all but one of their 10 matches across all competitions this term to date.
What’s more, Conte’s side have hit multiple goals in a sizeable six of those outings, which doesn’t bode well for a Frankfurt side that are finding clean sheets hard come by this season
Oliver Glasner’s team have bagged just two shut outs in eight Bundesliga matches this season and it’s also worth noting that they leaked three goals at home to Sporting Lisbon in their Group D curtain-raiser.
With this in mind, coupled with the current state of play in the section, backing Tottenham to strike twice holds plenty of appeal at even-money with PaddyPower.
Elsewhere, I’ll also dip into the anytime goalscorer market and take Tottenham’s Harry Kane to grab a goal at 13/10 with Bet 365.
The Spurs sharpshooter has struck in seven of his last nine appearances, so odds-against quotes on him to make the net bulge at Deutsche Bank Par is a price that definitely represents value.
