Tottenham vs Sporting Prediction: Will Antonio Conte's side be able to take revenge on home soil?

Tottenham lost in the first leg to Sporting Portugal. Who will be stronger? Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

The team leads their subgroup ahead of the Champions League group stage matchday 5, and if they beat Sporting, their chances of qualifying for the round of 16 will be significantly improved. Although Tottenham's handicap, even from third place, is only 1 point, if the Londoners lose to the Lisbon side, on the contrary, they will make their life for the playoffs much more difficult.

Last week, Tottenham lost two games in a row. In the English league, Spurs lost first to Manchester United (0:2) and then to Newcastle (1:2). But Tottenham is still third, five points behind first place in the EPL table.

The Lisbon side has won their last two UEFA Champions League games. First, they beat Eintracht FC 3:0 away, and then they beat Tottenham FC 2:0 at home. So, they had a realistic chance of reaching the playoffs ahead of their third and fourth-round games against Marseille. Sporting did not seize that golden opportunity, losing both meetings to the French (1:4 away, 0:2 at home). And now, if they fail to Tottenham, and if Marseille beats Eintracht in the parallel match, Sporting will have no chance of reaching the round of 16.

Last weekend, Sporting beat Casa Pia 3:1 in the Portuguese league. After ten rounds, Sporting is fourth, nine points behind the leader.

The upcoming match is a key one for both teams. Whoever wins will almost 100% play in the Champions League playoffs. Such high-value games rarely produce results. Besides, Conte and Amorim know how to play defensively. We're betting on the total under here.
