Tottenham v PSV betting tips: Can Spurs keep their European hopes alive?

Odds and preview for crucial Champions League tie

Tottenham Hotspur take on in-form PSV Eindhoven tonight in a must-win Champions League game.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side have only picked up one point from three European games this term. They need to win here or they’ll face a real battle to reach the knockout stages. If they lose or draw and Inter Milan beat Barcelona, their hopes will end tonight.

The BT Sport 2 cameras will be there to capture the action from 8:00pm. And we’ve got all the key info ahead of the action right here…

Head-to-Head

These two sides drew 2-2 last month. Luuk de Jong’s late equaliser at the Philips Stadion could haunt the North Londoners.

That was only the third meeting between these two. But PSV have knocked Spurs out of Europe before.

They faced each other in the UEFA Cup in 2007-08. The score finished 1-1 on aggregate after two legs, with PSV winning the shoot-out to book their place in the quarter-finals.

Likely XIs

Pochettino will be concerned that he won’t have his full-strength side for such a huge game.

With Hugo Lloris suspended, Paulo Gazzaniga looks likely to start in goal ahead of Michel Vorm. A lack of midfield options also means Moussa Sissoko is set to feature in central midfield alongside Harry Winks.

Dele Alli may not be ready to return to the starting XI just yet, but Erik Lamela should retain his spot out wide after scoring one and setting up another at the weekend.

PSV almost have a clean bill of health, which means Steven Bergwijn should start on the left wing. He missed out last time.
