Tottenham - SL Benfica 13/3/2014 20:05 GMT
The current leader of the Portugal Primeira Liga, Benfica travel to Tottenham in a match of the 1/8 round of the Europa League. This is the first serious test for the Londoners in the tournament and it is in this meeting, where we will see, whether Tottenham have the potential to win the trophy of this tournament.
Benfica is in an astonishing form. The last time they lost a game, was in the beginning of November 2013 and the loss came in the Champions League. Furthermore, in all competitions Benfica won 17 of their last 18 matches. The statistics are eloquent enough, and no doubt, the task for Tottenham looks extremely difficult.
There is no clear favorite to win this match, as both teams are really strong. Thus, most football tips might be for a draw here.
Tottenham are still not enough persistent in their performances, under the management of Tim Sherwood. The Spurs are alternating strong and weak games and are generally quite unpredictable. For the last 5 games in all tournaments Tottenham conceded 3 defeats. The Londoners qualified for this stage of the tournament rather difficultly, as if a player of Dnipro wasn`t sent off, then most likely now we wouldn`t have been watching Tottenham against Benfica. However, Tim Sherwood has great players in his team, who can successfully oppose to Benfica.
