Overview
After a difficult start to the season, Tottenham are slowly finding their winning spirit again. In the latest Premier League match, Spurs defeated Manchester United 3-0. This was their fourth consecutive victory in all competitions.
Facing Ferencvaros will be a good opportunity for Tottenham to continue this impressive streak. The Hungarian representative had a bad start to the Europa League, losing 1-2 to Anderlecht. If they continue to lose to Tottenham in this round, Ferencvaros' chances of advancing will be significantly narrower.
Ferencvaros are top of the domestic league table with 18 points from 6 games. They have won all 6 games since the start of the season.
However, in all aspects, Tottenham is still the team that is rated higher. The quality of Spurs' personnel is completely superior to Ferencvaros. Moreover, the team of coach Ange Postecouglou has won 6/8 recent away trips. This shows their impressive ability to play away.
Tottenham are flying high with a strong and convincing attacking style. In the Europa League, they also easily defeated Qarabag in the first match with a score of 3-0. Therefore, Ferencvaros will hardly be able to gain points against Spurs, even when playing at home.
This will be the first time the two teams have met in history.
Human resources situation
Tottenham will be without Dragusin, who is suspended after picking up a red card against Qarabag last week.
Ange Postecoglou is likely to give the likes of Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray a chance to feature. Son Heung-min is expected to be fully fit, while Richarlison is a doubt.
On the other side of the battle line, Ferencvaros will almost certainly have the strongest force in this match.
Expected lineup:
Ferencvarosi: Dibusz, Gartenmann, Cisse, Gustavo, Civic, Maiga, Abu Fani, Traore, Rhomdane, Gruber, Saldanha.
Tottenham: Vicario, Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Spence, Sarr, Kulusevski, Maddison, Johnson, Werner, Solanke.
The match between Ferencvaros and Tottenham takes place at 23:45 on October 3 (Vietnam time).
