Tottenham Hotspur vs. Elfsborg: Europa League game time, live blog, and how to watch online

The equation for Tottenham Hotspur is simple. Win their next Europa League match, and they qualify for the top eight, meaning Spurs would advance directly to the Round of 16.

Their only opposition: Elfsborg.

The Swedish side will be fresh, having only played Europa League and club friendlies due to the Allsvenskan calendar. This also means they may not be prepared for the rigors of a tough European tie, and one would think Spurs would be much too tough an opponent.

For Spurs, the injury woes have continued, and Ange will have to balance his (lack of) available players between this match, the weekend’s fixture against Brentford in the league, and the looming away leg of Spurs’ EFL Cup semi-final tie against Liverpool. This one could be a bit of a struggle-fest, but the Lilywhites will be doing their utmost to reduce their fixture list and achieve a shot at European glory.

COYS!

Match thread rules

The match thread rules are the same as always. To any visitors coming here for the first time, welcome! We’re glad you’re here! Wipe your feet, mind the gap, and be sure to check out the other pages at this outstanding site. While you’re here, though, we have a few rules and regulations:

• Absolutely no links to illegal streams. They’re bad and they get us in trouble. Violators will be warned or banned.
• We have rules against “relentless negativity.” Nobody likes a Negative Nancy. Don’t knee-jerk and post outlandish or hurtful things just because you’re frustrated.
• Along those lines, outright abuse of players or match officials is also not allowed. It’s fine to say “wow, that was a really bad call,” but it’s NOT okay to direct copious amounts of abuse in the direction of said official over a call you did not like.
• Treat other people in the match thread the way you would want someone else to treat your grandmother. Be nice. This is a community of fans, not an un-moderated message board.
• NO SPIDERS!
• Finally, while we don’t have a rule against profanity, please try and keep the naughty words in check. Also, language that is sexist, racist, transphobic, or homophobic in nature will be swiftly deleted and you will be immediately banned. This is an open, supportive community.
