The Champions League resumes on Tuesday night with Tottenham Hotspur hosting this season’s surprise package Ajax at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium. Let’s have a look at the teams form ahead of this crucial encounter…
Mauricio Pochettino’s side has been plagued by injuries which have resulted in their form taking a disastrous hit. They have only won 2 of their last 5 matches against already relegated Huddersfield and relegation candidates Brighton. Spurs lost their last Premier League fixture despite playing at home and the match being a London Derby against West-Ham.
Harry Kane and Harry Winks will be unavailable for Spurs which adds more woes to their plans.
Ajax on the other hand are unbeaten in their last five, winning 4 an drawing the other against the mighty Juventus. With their attacking free flowing brand of football, the young team has scored 14 goals in their last 5 games, conceding 6 during the same period.
Ajax did not play last weekend as they were given the weekend off to prepare for Spurs.
Betting Tip
Ajax almost always score but rarely keep a clean sheet hence why both teams will score @1.75
Also considering Spurs recent form and Ajax fearless approach to games, it would not hurt to back Ajax to win @3.04
