Group D is tight for promotion. Although Tottenham are 3 points ahead of Frankfurt, one of the teams in the match between Marseille and Frankfurt is bound to lose a point, or even a draw, so a win over Sporting will be enough to secure the top two spots in Group D. The Spurs will have to win the match against Frankfurt.
Although Spurs lost 0-2 to Sporting on the road in the first leg, both goals in that match came in extra time and Spurs seemed to have some bad luck. Having learned their lesson, Tottenham should be highly focused in this match. Spurs lost to Newcastle in their last EPL match and seem to have some reservations, but as long as they go all out this time, they still have a good chance of winning.
Sporting had a good start with two consecutive UEFA Europa League wins, but then their form slipped and they were "double-killed" by Marseille in their last two UEFA Europa League matches, conceding a total of 6 goals, which shows that their tactics have been cracked by their opponents. In addition, the core of the midfield, Bertou Kavis and defender Lekado Esquio are suspended, the strength of the damaged, the situation is not optimistic about the game to London.
