Tottenham Hotspur vs Eintracht Frankfurt Preview

The only route for Tottenham to qualify for next year’s UEFA Champions League competition is by winning the Europa League while Eintracht Frankfurt would be assured of a Champions League spot if they can manage to avoid too many negative results in the Bundesliga over the coming weeks. Either ways, lifting the coveted trophy in May would be a prime goal for both teams and the road to that would begin from London on Thursday evening.

Tottenham Hotspur

Ange Postecoglou has overseen a dismal domestic campaign as Spurs are currently in the 14th position with 37 points from 31 matches, while they were knocked out of the League Cup and the FA Cup in the semi-finals and the fourth round, respectively. Europe is where the Australian manager can salvage himself as he led Spurs to a fourth-placed finish in the league stage before overcoming a first-leg deficit against AZ Aikmaar in the Round of 16 but should prove his credentials against a dangerous Eintracht Frankfurt side.

Radu Dragusin, Dejan Kulusevski, and Kevin Danso will be unavailable for the first leg due to their respective injuries while Rodrigo Bentacur might feature on Thursday evening in London after serving his suspension during the Round of 16 tie.

Predicted Starting XI: Vicario; Spence, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie; Bentancur, Bissouma; Johnson, Maddison, Son; Solanke

Eintracht Frankfurt

On the other hand, the 2021-22 UEFA Europa League champions have progressed well under Dino Toppmoller who has led the club to the third position in the Bundesliga with six matchdays to go. Frankfurt crashed out of the cup competition as well after losing to RB Leipzig and Europe’s second-tier competition remains their only hope for a trophy at the end of the current season.

First-choice goalkeeper Kevin Trapp, Ansgar Knauff, Timothy Chandler, and Elye Wahi won’t be travelling to North London for the first leg of the quarter-final while Can Uzun remains a doubt for the trip to England’s capital city.

Predicted Starting XI: Santos; Kristensen, Koch, Theate, Brown; Tuta, Skhiri; Gotze, Larsson, Bahoya; Ekitike
