Austrian side Wolfsberger will be looking to add to Tottenham Hotspur’s woes when the Londoners tour Budapest for the Europa League second round first leg clash. As a result of travel restrictions in Austria, the game will be staged at the Puskas Arena. The ‘hosts’ warmed up for this game with a 2-1 win over Admira in their domestic league while Tottenham had to endure yet another defeat. The win over Admira was Wolfsberger’s third in four matches and they’ll have the psychological advantage. They have scored two goals in three of their last five matches but failed to score in the remaining two. As a result, three of their last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals. They have just two losses in the last 12 matches, and won eight in the run. However, they’ve failed to score in four of the last seven matches. Playing as the home team, Wolfsberger have one loss and four wins in their last eight matches. As hosts, in Europa League, they haven’t done really well, and only carry one win in the last seven matches.

Tottenham on the other hand, will really do with a win after getting outdone in the last few matches. They are on five losses in the last six matches and their only win in the run came against relegation threatened West Bromwich Albion. Going to this game, they were humbled 3-0 by Manchester City in the Premier League. With this loss, they have conceded eight goals in the last two matches. They could welcome back defenders Sergio Reguillon and Serge Aurier for this game, which should boost their chances but midfielder Gio Lo Celso is out. Spurs have failed to score in three of their last five matches and have just one clean sheet in the last nine matches. It is time for a change, and they’ll like it that the Europa League is back, with the team currently unbeaten in four in the competition. However, they have no clean sheet in the last eight away matches in this competition. Generally, Spurs have struggled away from home lately – in their last three matches in all competitions, they’ve suffered straight losses. Only one clean sheet has been registered in the last 11 away matches and five of six away matches have posted over 2.5 goals, with Spurs failing defensively.
