Hoffenheim
Last season, the team finally showed a fairly good result, finishing in 7th position in Bundesliga 1. But in the new season, everything just fell apart. Moreover, the change of mentor did not particularly help. In November, Ilzer took the post instead of Matarazzo. But all he managed to do was win his debut match with RB Leipzig. After that, there were failures, including already under a new coach, they were eliminated from the German Cup after 0:3 with Wolfsburg. In such conditions, not for the Europa League. There, the Germans beat only Dynamo Kyiv in crisis. At the same time, they drew with Midtjylland, Lyon and FCSB, with dry defeats against Porto and Braga. It is still possible to make it to the playoffs, but only with victories in the final rounds.

Tottenham
Last season, the club did not get just one victory to return to the Champions League even without Kane. In the end, because of Aston Villa’s peak, there was only 5th place. And, accordingly, the English went only to the Europa League. At the same time, they show themselves extremely inconsistently in the domestic arena: with an actual failure in the Premier League, with a drop to the bottom of the table, Spurs reached the semi-finals of the League Cup, winning 1:0 the first match there against Liverpool itself. In the European League, the English started with three victories, over Karabakh, Ferencvaros and AZ. But then they continued with the defeat of Galatasaray, and even with Roma and Rangers there were only productive draws. However, this was more or less enough to already plan performances in the playoffs.
Statistics of personal meetings
Not so long ago, the Germans reached a high level and appeared in European competitions a few times. So they will receive this representative of Great Britain for the first time.
Forecast
Bookmakers are considered the favorite of the guests. Taking into account the not very high motivation of the English, we bet on them with a zero handicap (coefficient – 1.6).
