Tottenham vs Eintracht Frankfurt Prediction
Tottenham Hotspur are on course for their worst ever Premier League season and the pressure remains very much on Ange Postecoglou, despite supporters mainly directing their ire at the club’s hierarchy. Spurs did most recently edge past bottom-of-the-table and now relegated Southampton by two goals to one at the weekend.
The 2022 UEFA Europa League winners Eintracht Frankfurt are now searching for more European glory as Dino Toppmoller’s entertainers head into the quarter-finals. They did, though, continue their inconsistent form with a 2-0 loss to Werder Bremen at the weekend, albeit they remain tucked inside the top four and the UEFA Champions League spots.
Tottenham are often very entertaining to watch but Frankfurt are simply a better side and it would therefore make sense to side with them ahead of their first-leg this week.
