RB Leipzig vs Tottenham Match Preview

Tottenham travel to Leipzig for the 2nd leg of the Champions League last 16, after the 0-1 home defeat in the first match.

Leipzig are clearly the big favorites after their victory in London, but also for a second win tonight. They are coming from a bore draw against Wolfsburg away from home, a result that dropped them in the 3rd position of the German Bundesliga and slighting their hopes for winning the title.

I expect them to play their usual aggressive game vs Tottenham in order to secure their qualification. At their home, they have registered 7 wins and 4 draws in the last 11 games, remaining unbeaten for the last 5 months.

Tottenham, at the most critical period of both the Champions League and the Premier League competitions, lack two of their best players. Son's missing causes trouble in creation, and Kane's in scoring goals.

Despite these missings, they have to give their best for the qualification, coach Mourinho is forced to select an aggressive approach since his team needs at least 2 goals to reach the qualification. At the same time, I am pretty sure that it's almost impossible for the Spurs to keep a clean sheet.

Tottenham will try to take an early lead, while Leipzig with the support of their fans will try to score and secure their qualification as early as possible.

The odds of Over 2.5 goals are quite satisfying right now, having a downward trend. Over 2.5 goals is my call, I am gonna risk a 7/10 stake.
