Tottenham Hotspur vs Juventus, Last 16 2nd Leg, RTE2 & BT Sport 2 (k.o. 7.45)

Spurs-vs-Juve-matchplug-soccer-predictions-betting-tips-500x315.jpg

After pretty poor fare last night in the Champions League, let's hope for better action tonight. This game promises to be a great clash with the game nicely poised at 2-2 after the first leg.

The teams are in:

Tottenham XI: Lloris; Trippier, Sanchez, Vertonghen, Davies; Dier, Dembele; Son, Alli, Eriksen; Kane.

Juventus XI: Buffon; Barzagli, Benatia, Chiellini, Alex Sandro; Khedira, Pjanic, Matuidi; Douglas Costa, Higuain, Dybala.

I think Dybala back in is a big plus for Juve and Matuidi who was absent for the first leg should give Dembele more of a challenge. They've more experience than Spurs in this type of situation too which could prove significant. Spurs's attacking players are in good form though so I give them a decent chance.

I'll get off the fence though and say Juve to win by a goal. What way do you see it going?

Buffon will never make it as a keeper

A mess at the end but Buffon's decline is sad to see. He was awful in the first leg and has been so awkward looking tonight, reminds me of a keeper in a women's match.

Son is some player in fairness. Spurs best player over the past few weeks.

Vicxas

Juve fell apart there.

Ardent

What was Buffon doing there?!

Buffon looking like a 40 year old man

Cracking finish

BorneTobyWilde

Buffoon dived to the ground in a gamble to react fast to a player who was not shooting, it then ran through to Son who did shoot into an empty goal.

Toobz

Delighted for them, and Barzagli!

Why isn't sczesny (sp?) In goal for Juve??? He's been immense for them this season. Buffon anything but.

Spurs getting all the luck so far

Buffon has messed up again and cost Juve another goal.

Another amazing yellow due to an Alli dive. Can they sub this ref at half time?

Sad to see Buffon carry on like this. Should have gone after quitting international football.

Costa has some pace

He went to kick the ball and kicked him in the shin, it was a clear foul and a yellow.

It’s been said to death but Dembele is an absolute colossus in that Spurs midfield. I’ve never seen a player brush off so many tackles with such ease and his dribbling is of the highest standard too.

He missed the ball, swung wild, made absolutely no contact with Alli who swan dived.

If he had made contact with that swing, Alli would still be down.

Mr.Nice Guy

Impressive half for Spurs although they were blessed not to concede a pen. A lot of power and strength and clearly playing for their coach. Like the total opposite of PSG last night. Juventus struggling to create anything. Can't recall Lloris having to do anything of note. With the exception of Costa, their attacking play has been disappointing.

Kiith

Pretty much as good as we could hope for so far.
Juve really have to go for it now, so it should leave more room for the counter.

It's deli alli, so regardless of how much of a foul it is, he's a cheating bollox apparently.

Another trippier assist showed great composure there.

He did make contact. Watch the replay again. Just because it's Alli doesn't mean it's a dive, even if some people seem to think so

Watch it again if you must. At best there is a slight contact from the side of the Juve player’s boot.

You’re defending Alli, the biggest diver in the premiership?!? Ok then, that says it all

Ardent

Disagree with Duff - not all penalties for Spurs. Perhaps the last one.
