Spurs to Turn Tie Around?

Tottenham are having a season to forget, but their run in the Europa League has lifted the spirits. The Londoners finished fourth in the league phase, winning five, drawing two, and losing one of eight,  

AZ Alkmaar ended in 19th on 11 points after three wins, three defeats, and two draws. The Dutch outfit then went up against Turkish giants Galatasaray in the play-offs, winning 6-3 on aggregate.

Spurs head into this huge European tie winless in three. However, they did come from two goals down to grab a Premier League draw with Bournemouth last weekend. Son Heung-Min’s 84th-minute penalty rescued a point.

This will be Alkmaar’s first game since beating Tottenham last Thursday. The Eredivisie side are in good form, winning six of their last nine across all competitions and losing just once since January. Can Maarten Martens’ men pick up a positive result in this one?

These two have already met twice in the Europa League this season. In October at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, a Richarlison penalty gave the Londoners a 1-0 league-phase win.

Alkmaar got revenge on their own patch in last week’s first leg, winning 1-0 at AFAS Stadion. Tottenham were not at the races, and an early Lucas Bergvall own goal was their downfall.

Tottenham have been poor in the Premier League this term, sitting 13th after 28 games. The Europa League can save their season, and Postecoglou’s boys should make home advantage count on Thursday.
