Tottenham Hotspur vs Wolfsberger AC prediction, preview, team news and more | Europa League 2020-21
Wolfsberger AC travel to North London to face Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League’s round of 32 on Wednesday evening.
The tie is all but over after Tottenham defeated Wolfsberger 4-1 in the first leg, but Jose Mourinho’s side will want to make another statement here.
The English side have not been in the best form recently. Another match against Wolfsberger – who are in fifth place in the Austrian Bundesliga – could be a good way for them to regain some confidence.
Tottenham Hotspur vs Wolfsberger AC Head-to-Head
Tottenham defeated Wolfsberger comfortably last week, winning 4-1 in the neutral venue of Budapest’s Puskas Arena.
Goals from Son Heung Min, Gareth Bale, Lucas Moura and Carlos Vinicius were enough for Jose Mourinho’s side, who should now win this tie comfortably.
However, Wolfsberger did give them problems at times. The Austrian side will be hoping for a more positive result – even if it won't be enough to move into the round of 16.
Wolfsberger defeated Sturm Graz 2-1 in an Austrian Bundesliga game at the weekend, their fourth domestic win in their last five games.
In contrast, Tottenham fell to defeat at the hands of West Ham. Spurs have won just two of their last six Premier League games.
