Ferencvárosi vs Tottenham Hotspur: betting odds 3 Oct 2024

Tottenham Hotspur's emphatic 3:0 victory over Manchester United on Sunday should boost the London side’s confidence for their trip to face Ferencváros. An important aspect of their success at Old Trafford was the absence of Heung-Min Son— if they managed to handle a direct competitor without their leader, then the team should be able to perform in Hungary as well.

In the current campaign, Ferencváros have found it relatively easy going in their domestic league, gradually pulling away from their competitors with six consecutive wins and 12 goals scored. On the other hand, they have faced setbacks in European competitions: they were knocked out of the Champions League qualifiers by FC Midtjylland (1:3 on aggregate), and lost to RSC Anderlecht (1:2) last week. The Belgian side quickly created an advantage in chances (0.77 against 1.33 xG), exposing the Hungarian team's defensive weaknesses.

Following a derby loss to Arsenal (0:1), Tottenham Hotspur have won four consecutive matches, scoring at least two goals in each game (11 goals in total). Against Manchester United, the London side created 5.41 xG (the second-best in the Premier League round), and they are the best in the league by total expected goals (15.75). Dominic Solanke is firing for his new club, with 3+1 in his last three matches.

Ferencváros will have Raul Gustavo back from suspension, but even his return won't significantly bolster their defence. Tottenham Hotspur’s star-studded lineup will make the most out of their trip to Budapest, and they are expected to score at least two goals.
