Olympique de Marseille and Tottenham face each other this Tuesday, 1, trying to confirm the classification in the most disputed group of this edition of the Champions League
Olympique de Marseille x tottenham face each other this Tuesday, 1, at 17:00 (Brasília time), for the last round of the Champions League group stage. In addition to its natural importance for being part of the biggest club competition in the world, the match will also define the classification of the teams in the most disputed group of this edition and which has all teams with chances after the first five rounds.
Olympique de Marseille currently occupy the bottom of the group, but are only two points clear of leaders Tottenham. The count to qualify is simple, as victory is enough, but a stumble prevents any chance of reaching the round of 16 of the tournament. Therefore, the game gains decision contours, especially for the French.
On the other hand, leaders Tottenham only need a draw, but winning takes away any chance of not finishing first. Despite this, with the game away from home and important absences such as richarlison and Kulusevskythe coach Antonio Conte shouldn’t see a possible equality on the scoreboard as a bad thing, as that would also be enough for classification.
In the first round, the result was a 2-0 victory for England, with two goals from Brazilian Richarlison, who was then debuting in the Champions League. This time, without him, the English team doesn’t even need a new victory to leave the Velodrom happy, but they think about playing a good game so they don’t have to count on the other result of the group and do the math to reach the round of 16.
