Tottenham vs Olympiacos: Prediction, tickets, team news, TV live stream, H2H, betting - Champions League preview

Tottenham can secure their place in the Champions League knockout stages with a win over Olympiacos on Tuesday.

Jose Mourinho's tenure began with a long overdue away win as West Ham were beaten on Saturday and the new manager can tick another box on his 'To Do' list with a win in midweek.

A draw is also expected to be enough with Bayern likely to extend their perfect record away at Red Star.

There will be eyes on Christian Eriksen after Mourinho left him out of his first starting XI, and spoke of an uncertainty over his commitment , especially after Dele Alli's star turn at the London Stadium.

Champions League preview

Tottenham vs Olympiacos
Venue: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
Kick-off time: 8pm GMT, Tuesday, November 26


Prediction: Tottenham 2-0 Olympiacos

Jose Mourinho will be keen to get qualification in the bag before the matchday six trip to Bayern Munich, so with Bournemouth at home four days later he should pick a strong enough team.

The Greek outfit have drawn two and lost 10 of their last 12 games in the Champions League and Spurs have enough quality to make that winless run stretch to 13.


Team news

Harry Kane, Jan Vertonghen and Tanguy Ndombele all joined in training on Monday.

Kane looked to have taken a knock during Saturday's win at West Ham while Vertonghen has had a hamstring injury and Ndombele a groin problem.

Ben Davies was absent after sustaining an injury against the Hammers and will miss out, with Erik Lamela and Hugo Lloris also out.

Tottenham predicted lineup (4-2-3-1): Gazzaniga; Aurier, Alderweireld, Sanchez, Rose; Sissoko, Ndombele; Lucas, Dele, Son; Kane
