Tottenham +1/2 in 11/3/11 Europa League

[msj0001]

I think Tottenham, with a chance to qualify, will draw at worst today. I know it's in Russia, but I think Tottenham come out motivated. It doesn't hurt that they've got a Russian striker Pavlyuchenko who will be ready for the atmosphere, and played very well in the first leg.

Seems to be a popular pick today thanks for the thoughts.

No, not a good bet. Tottenham doesn't take Europa seriously. Rednapp is at home due to operation. May not be ideal to play.

Tottenham will definitely lose. It is mostly their B side. See below.

Rubin Kazan-Tottenham 1
Rubin have lost only one of their last 14 home games in Europe.
Tottenham will be without their coach. It is anticipated turnover as has happened before in the Europa League

Quote:
Rubin Kazan manager Kurban Berdyev thinks Harry Redknapp's absence will have little impact on Tottenham's performance in the Europa League clash between the two sides in Russia.

It is understood Redknapp underwent a minor heart procedure after being admitted to hospital on Tuesday night.

It is not known how long the 64-year-old will be absent from the Spurs dug-out, but the London club confirmed that he would not make the 2,000-mile trip to Kazan for the game against the Russians.

Redknapp is a popular figure in the Spurs camp, and in English football in general.
Despite the fact that a win will guarantee them passage through to the last 32, Spurs are likely to rest a number of their stars, with the likes of Gareth Bale, Scott Parker and Luka Modric not expected to travel - let alone play.

That will mean players such as Tom Carroll, Harry Kane and Andros Townsend will play in the Russian city, which is 450 miles east of Moscow.

"Our priority for the coming season has to be to try to try to qualify for the Champions League, at least, but we would also like to win some silverware for the club," he said.

Have seen a couple threads mentioning this game, I consider it popular if each thread has leaned Tottenham and haven't seen anyone taking Kazan until you.

hmmm, there might be some bias in those threads that you are reading. I don't see a good tipster leaning against Tottenham when we all know that Spurs don't take Europa seriously. It is too much of a risk.

whats the difference between ML and GOALS

does GOALS include if it goes to a 3rd period or PK ? I see ML at -120 and Goals -1/2 at -120 , i am aware that a tie score means i lose

is OT and PK included in this match?

Tottenham could care less about EL, I'd love to see them actually try. Maybe set up a good Super Cup game like Porto/Barça.
