Finally back after a long break Champions League Matches. The 8-final will pit Tottenham Hotspur from England against RB Leipzig from Germany. It is going to be a very interesting battle between these two teams.
Tottenham Hotspur
This team could be considered one of the elite in English football, but this season has not gone as expected. Tottenham are currently 5th in the Premier League. More recently, the position was even worse. Only thanks to tthe team managed to win two consecutive games in a row reduce the deficit to 4th place to 1 point. These recent victories have come against Aston Villa, Norwich and even Man City and Tottenham have scored at least 2 goals each.
In general, when it comes to Tottenham, the first thing that stands out is their Attack. The team has never been known for its defence, and this year 34 goals conceded in 26 games. The defensive line often makes childish mistakes and concedes easy goals.
Although Kane, their offensive leader, was dropped during the season, the new signing Bergwijn has fitted in well. Eriksen, the other star of the team, was also sold, but this may have even worked in their favour and improved the atmosphere in the team. Son, Alli, Lucas - All of them are very talented in attack and can score many goals.
It's worth noting that the London club won 10 of their last 14 UEFA CL home games. The only draw was against AC Milan in 2010. Tottenham will be desperate for a win at home and will be desperate to have an advantage before the return leg.
RB Leipzig
The team has risen to the top of German football over the last few seasons. And this season has been particularly successful. After 22 games played, the team is second in the league and just one point behind Bayern Munich. Playing away is also a good game. The team has won 6 of its 11 matches and scored 25 goals.
RB Leipzig is also a team that is primarily associated with by attacknot defence. On the offensive line, they have players such as Werner, Schick, Mukiele, Sabitzer, Forsberg, Ampadu, Poulsen, etc. This is a very young and mobile forward line, which is characterised by a very high speed. It is no wonder that most opponents' defences are not able to cope with Leipzig's attack.
Team Leipzig this season 3.7 goals average score per game. And only 5 of 22 ended their matches with less than three goals. An interesting fact is that Leipzig often struggle to win UEFA CL away games. This could happen in this match as well, but at least this team should score one goal.
Choice
So, UEFA CL, we have two teams that are famous for their offence and not their defence. Tottenham are averaging 3 goals per game this season, while RB Leipzig are averaging 3.7 goals. Tottenham should try to gain an advantage before the away game and try to get a win, but given their leaky defence it would be quite surprising if they manage to concede a goal. It seems that both teams should excel, and one of them might even score several times. Good luck and good football!
