Frankfurt vs Tottenham Prediction

In the first-leg of this UEFA Europa League quarter-final tie at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last week, Eintracht Frankfurt took an early lead via Hugo Ektike before Spurs equalised around 20 minutes later via right-back Pedro Porro and the sides ended up sharing a 1-1 draw.

Following the departure of Omar Marmoush to Manchester City in the winter transfer window, Frankfurt haven’t been quite as strong under the management of Dino Toppmoller but they remain tucked inside the top three in the Bundesliga, whilst Spurs continued their miserable campaign at the weekend with a 4-2 defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux as they continue to drift down the Premier League table.

Frankfurt should be favourites with their home advantage but Tottenham showed signs of being able to really threaten them last week and it could end up being quite a fun watch for the neutral.
