Ferencvaros

Ferencvaros vs Tottenham Hotspur

, KO: 17:45 Oct 3, 2024, Groupama Arena
Tottenham Hotspur

Ferencvaros host Tottenham in the second round of the League Phase of the Europa League and there is a high potential for a goal-packed clash.

Ferencvaros faced Anderlecht in their opening match and produced a thriller. We saw a little bit of everything in that match but the Hungarians failed to equalise against ten men.

This was Ferencvaros' first defeat in all competitions since their defeat to Midtjylland in the CL qualifiers in August. The team is once again dominating the OTB Bank Liga and sits at the top of the table with 6/6 and a 12:2 goal difference.

Tottenham finally found their rhythm after the international break and enter this match with four wins in a row. Their EL campaign began with one of the most chaotic games we saw in Europe last week.

The fixture was delayed, Radu Dragusin got sent off in just seven minutes, and yet the Spurs won 3-0 with ease. The negative side of that win was Son's injury, which also kept him off for the United game on Sunday.

It remains unclear whether the South Korean will be fit for this match but there is enough quality in Ange Postecoglou's squad to beat Ferencvaros even with the long injury list.

How the bookies view it: Spurs to make it five in a row

It comes as no surprise that bookmakers see Tottenham as a heavy favourite ahead of this match. Betano gives them just 11/25 to win on Thursday, while you can bet on the home side at 47/8. The draw is priced at 19/5.

Recent head to head: Nothing to declare

This will be the first official meeting between Ferencvaros and Tottenham. Perhaps we should note that Postecoglou will be familiar with this opponent as he already beat them twice when he was managing Celtic a few years back.

Players to watch: Johnson to make it five

Brennan Johnson finished last season with five goals and 10 assists and is already close to breaking his previous best with Tottenham. The 23-year-old scored in each of Tottenham's last four matches. If Heung-Min Son remains sidelined for this match, Brennan Johnson will be the Spurs' main weapon in the final third.

Probable line-ups

Ferencvaros: Dibusz, Gartenmann, Civic, Cisse, Gustavo, Abu Fani, Maiga, Traore, Ben Romdhane, Saldanha, Gruber

Tottenham: Vicario, Porro, Romero, van de Ven, Maddison, Spence, Kulusevski, Bentancur, Werner, Johnson, Solanke

Anything else catch the eye?

Tottenham scored 3+ goals in each of their last three fixtures, which indicates we can expect a high-scoring display on Thursday. Their recent away record in Europe is underwhelming, with a single win in the last eight attempts.

We back them to win against Ferencvaros but not without at least one goal from the respectable hosts. The Hungarians are in form and have not lost a group-stage match at home in over two years (W3, D3).

Regardless of the outcome, there will be goals in this fixture and there is value in all regular and alternative markets. For instance, we like the odds for Tottenham to score in both halves too.
