Tottenham vs Eintracht Frankfurt UEFA Europa League Prediction Match Details
The Europa League quarterfinal kicks off its first leg actions on Thursday night as Tottenham hosts Eintracht Frankfurt at the Tottenham Hotspurs Stadium. Can Spurs fancy home advantage?
Tottenham Preview & Form
Tottenham's season has been full of ups and downs, and their only chance of ending their turbulent season with silverware is winning the Europa League trophy. Ange Postecoglou's future at the club depends solely on winning the Europa League trophy, which will automatically guarantee their spot in next season's Champions League. Spurs will come into this game on the back of an impressive 3-1 home victory over relegation side Southampton in the Premier League, with the result ending a two-match losing streak. Ange Postecoglou remains under pressure as Spurs still sit 14th in the Premier League table. They made it to the quarterfinal of the Europa League by narrowly beating Netherlands side AZ Alkmaar on a 3-2 aggregate. In European competitions this season, Spurs have remained undefeated at home, and this should boost their confidence in taking a first-leg advantage against Frankfurt.
Eintracht Frankfurt Preview & Form
Frankfurt will be hoping to replicate their success in the 2021/22 season after claiming their second European glory by beating Rangers on penalties in the Europa League final in Seville. They will come into this game on the back of a 2-0 loss to Werder Bremen in the domestic league, with the result ending a three-match competitive victory. Frankfurt has been inconsistent with form in this season's Europa League, having won five of their last seven Europa games and losing the other two games. They progressed to the quarterfinals after beating Ajax both home and away on a 6-2 aggregate. However, Frankfurt was beaten 3-2 in its last visit to London against Tottenham in the 2022 season.
