Team-News Tottenham Hotspurs

Unai Emery’s side has invested a lot of money compared to other teams and has made some major deals to improve. The most important new arrival is Richarlison, a striker who joins Tottenham from Everton. And centre-back Christian Romero joins London from Atalanta Bergamo. Both are already regulars and have contributed to Spurs’ good start to the new season. None of the important regulars is missing at the moment, so Spurs can field the team that beat Fulham 2-1 last weekend. Coach Antonio Conte seems to have finally implemented his style of play at Tottenham and the current success speaks for them. They are currently in 3rd place, just one point away from league leaders Arsenal.

Team-News Olympique Marseille

It was not easy for Olympique Marseille to move on after the departure of successful coach Jorge Sampaioli. They had to find a suitable successor and found former world-class defender Igor Tudor from Croatia. He was coach of Hellas Verona last season – and actually, you can not say he was ever successful as a coach himself. Neither at Verona, nor at Hajduk Split, nor at Udinese, nor even at Galatasaray. But Olympique was convinced that he would be the right one and the start so far shows that the Marseille officials were right. Of course, Tudor still benefits from the good work Sampaioli did before. The face of the team has not changed much, but Guendozi, Under and Veretout could improve the team.

However, Marseille’s previous opponents have been teams like Auxerre, Nice, Nantes or Reims – these are light years away from the quality of Tottenham. So it is difficult to really assess the level of Olympique Marseille this season.

Statistics

  • They have not played each other in the last 10 years 
  • Tottenham has not lost an official match since March -.
  • Olympique are unbeaten in official matches since May. 
  • Tottenham have won all their home games this season 
  • Marseille is unbeaten away from home so far this season. 
  • Tottenham scores 65% of their goals in the 2nd half. 
  • Olympique score 21% of their goals in the first 15 minutes 
  • Referee Slavko Vincic shows an average of 3.75 cards.

Our betting prediction for Tottenham Hotspurs vs. Olympique Marseille

Tottenham is in superb form at the moment and with Manchester City and especially Liverpool struggling at the moment, it could be Spurs’ time to shine – not only in the English Premier League but also in Europe, where they reached the Champions League final a couple of years ago. Tottenham should be too strong for Olympique in this match and even the Asian handicap of 1 still has some value in it. These odds of 1.90 are available at almost all sportsbooks.

Even as a child, I started typing the results of the Bundesliga with my friends at school. The stakes were modest back then: The lunch, a few marbles or maybe a milk slice. Then, at the age of 9, I played the penalty bet once - and immediately got 10 right. The previous week I had won 500 DM and in my childish imagination I was already imagining how many football pictures I could buy at the kiosk on the corner. Unfortunately, it was one of those match days when everything turned out as expected and I only won DM 8.10. Nevertheless, I followed the game with great interest. Nevertheless, the passion to correctly predict the outcome of sporting events haunted me for the rest of my life. I would have loved to own the sports almanac that Marty McFly bought in Back to the Future II. Much later, when I was already working as a journalist for newspapers and as a writer for television, I came across an international betting forum with over 100,000 members - and found out that a lot of people there were giving their tips on German football, but nobody seemed to have a real clue, so I wrote a few English-language preliminary reports with a few tips - and was right about everything. After that, an avalanche started. I got offers from bookmakers, sports papers and even betting syndicates to work for them - and I accepted a few of them too, experiencing the ups & downs of sports betting and travelling halfway around the world in the years that followed. There I met Chinese multimillionaires betting five to six figures, amateur players in Serbia or Turkey supporting their families with small stakes, South Africans gambling away half their fortune, Brazilians who could only leave their favelha and become rich by making the right tips. At one point my life was similar to Matthew McCaughaney's in the film Two For The Money - and far too much stress. I subsequently moved to another continent and ran an English-language football epaper about the Bundesliga from there. After the birth of my son, I devoted myself for many years only to artistic projects in the field of photography and literature. However, I am happy to share my knowledge and passion with the readers of bettingtipsafrica.
