Tottenham v AZ Alkmaar result predicted by Super Computer in Europa League

Tottenham’s season hinges on Europa League success

This is the very last chance for Spurs to make anything out of the current campaign, and a failure to do that will see this season go down as a disastrous one.

Performances have been far away from the expected standard, while the results have often been even worse, and the prospect of a campaign without European football is a serious consideration at this stage.

Tottenham have more than enough to secure their place in the next round of the Europa League, but they will ned to give a far better account of themselves in comparison to the
