The Europa League's inaugural league phase concludes on Thursday in what's expected to be a chaotic night of action across Europe.
All 18 games will be played at the same time with Ange Postecoglou's Tottenham in a good position to secure automatic qualification. And automatic qualification would be hugely helpful to Spurs given it would see them avoid playing two extra games in February's play-offs.
For all their domestic troubles, things have been going pretty well for Tottenham in Europe. Postecoglou's side claimed a 3-2 victory over Bundesliga outfit Hoffenheim last time out, which leaves them sixth in the league table with 14 points. That all means that victory against Swedish outfit Elfsborg on Thursday will cement a top-eight finish.
That's certainly the likeliest outcome according to bookmakers, who've priced Tottenham at odds-on 1/5 to collect maximum points - perhaps because they are unbeaten in 16 home games in all European competitions (W13 D3). Spurs will be desperate for a routine victory to swiftly put Sunday's defeat to struggling Leicester City behind them and give Postecoglou some breathing space ahead of next week's crucial Carabao Cup semi-final clash against Liverpool.
