Last week, Tottenham played without their leader Harry Kane, whose future as part of the team is still questionable. The player has not yet regained his form after the European Championship. One of the main players in the upcoming game is sure to be Son Heung-min, who brought the first official victory to Espírito Santo as the head coach of the London team. The favorite is obviously Tottenham. For sure, the Portuguese manager is not going to do without a Eurocup this season.
