Tottenham vs Qarabag Prediction & Betting Tips (26 September)

5th in the Premier League last year, Tottenham qualified for the Europa League. Still under the orders of Ange Postecoglou this season, the London team is struggling to express the full extent of its potential until now. Indeed, Spurs are currently only 10th in the Premier League and concede 4 units of spending on the Big 4. After a convincing success against the relegated Everton 4-0, they showed their limits by losing to Newcastle 2 -1 and Arsenal 0-1. Last weekend, Tottenham reacted with a home success against Brentford 3-1.

In the League Cup, Heung-Min Son's teammates beat Coventry to advance to the next round 1-2. Close to qualifying for the Champions League, Qarabag must finally settle for the Europa League following its setback against Dinamo Zagreb in the final preliminary round 0-5 after the two-legged matches. Dominant on the national scene, the three-time reigning Azerbaijan champion now occupies the top of the rankings with a record of 5 victories and 1 defeat. Beaten at home by Turan at the end of August 0-1, Qarabag has since had 3 wins in a row against Zira 1-3, Sabail 2-1 and Neftci Baku last Friday 4-0. 

Tottenham will most likely play without Malian international Bissouma, author of 2 goals in the 2 qualifying matches for the CAN and scorer once in the Premier League this season. In addition, Richarlison is also on the flank (glitch) and will be OUT. The South Korean crack Son (2 goals in PL this season), and James Maddison (2 assists in PL) will spearhead the English offensives while the important rear guard made up of Udogie, van de Ven, Romero and Porro should be there to ensure the clean sheet behind.

On the Qarabag side, it is still unclear concerning the players present in this club but let's talk about the crucial men during the qualifying phase, starting with the Brazilian Juninho (6 goals), the well-known Benzia (Algerian international, 3 goals during the Champions qualifiers) without forgetting to mention boys like Andrade (Cape Verdean international), Bayramov (10 goals in the league last season) and the French Zoubir (2 goals in championship this season) who arrived in the country in 2018 from Lens.
