Tottenham vs Wolfsberger official line-ups: Team news ahead of Europa League fixture tonight
Jose Mourinho will hope to ease the pressure on himself somewhat with another comfortable win over Wolfsberger AC, when Tottenham Hotspur head back into Europa League action on Wednesday. Spurs took a 4-1 first-leg lead last week, with Gareth Bale providing one of his better showings since signing on loan from Real Madrid in the summer.
The North London club have been in woeful form of late, however, with that first-leg win a rare victory in recent times - Spurs have lost five out of their last six in the Premier League, including a 2-1 loss to West Ham last time out.
Champions League football for next season is looking increasingly unlikely by way of a top-four finish, so Spurs will need to go all the way in this competition instead to join Europe’s elite next term.
