Spurs are in for a treat as they face IF Elfsborg in their next UEL Clash.

Tottenham Hotspur will be hosting IF Elfsborg in their upcoming UEFA Europa League 2024-25 fixture on January 31. Spurs will be keen on securing a victory in their competition after their lacklustre performances in the Premier League. Tottenham are doing well in the UEL as they sit in the sixth spot with 14 points.

Tottenham Hotspur will be looking to boss the proceedings against struggling IF Elfsborg. Spurs have bagged four victories in their seven Europa League matches which is surely going to help them to get to the next stage of the European tournament. Spurs are having a disappointing run in the Premier League. They can even find themselves in the relegation zone if they don’t fight back.

The Swedish side IF Elfsborg will be fighting hard to retain their place in the next round of the Europa League. After their modest performances last season, they ended up in the seventh spot in the Swedish League Allsvenskan. If they find themselves defeated against Spurs, then Elfsborg can forget securing a spot in the further stages of the tournament. The same will be the case if they end up in a draw.

Friday, January 31, 1:30 AM IST

Location: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, London, England

Form:

Tottenham Hotspur: W-L-L-W-L

The South Korean winger will be all ready to lead his side to a triumph over the Swedish side IF Elfsborg. Son Heung-min has scored three goals in five matches for Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League. He will be keen on engraving his name on the scoresheet against Elfsborg. Son will have a key role to play in Spurs’ final third during their upcoming UEL clash.

Simon Hedlund (IF Elfsborg)

Simon Hedlund has been involved in three-goal contributions for Elfsborg in seven UEL matches. The Swedish forward is all set to play an important role in Elfborg’s clash against Spurs in UEL.
