Marseille vs Tottenham. Which team will advance to the playoffs of the tournament?
On Tuesday, November 1st, the Stade Velodrome will host a duel between Marseille and Tottenham in the 6th round of the Champions League.
Marseille is in fourth place in their quartet, but still retains a chance to continue fighting in the tournament. The French team can safely be called the most uncompromising in the current draw and it is unlikely that they will deviate from their principles in the decisive match of the group stage.
In the future match against Tottenham, Marseille will arrange an exceptionally victorious result, so the French team will try to play aggressively in front. The support of home fans should also be an important factor for the hosts, who clearly cannot be motivated to take all three points.
Tottenham
Tottenham played an incredible match in the last round of the Champions League against Sporting: the Londoners lost most of the playing time, but at the end of the game they could even win if Harry Kane's goal had not been canceled due to offside. However, the Spurs are leading the quartet and have the best chance of advancing to the playoffs of the tournament.
But the current first place does not allow Tottenham to relax, because after the sixth round the team may well be left with nothing. It is important for Spurs not to lose in a future match, but playing for a draw can turn into a failure for them. Antonio Conte will clearly choose the right tactics for such an important fight and release his strongest squad.
