A week is a long time in football they say, and my goodness Spurs have crammed a LOT in to the past seven days.
Jose Mourinho’s departure, to be replace by a 29-year-old interim, barely merited a mention among all the European Super League hulabaloo in a week of off-field drama in North London.
On the field, Ryan Mason guided Spurs to a win over Southampton in midweek to put them back in contention for a Champions League spot and unbelievably he has the chance to write his name in the history books today if he can wrestle the Carabao Cup from holders Manchester City at Wembley and land Totenham’s first piece of silverware since 2008.
Today should’ve been the first leg of a historic quadruple for Pep Guardiola but defeat to Chelsea in the FA Cup last week means City will need to settle for a treble at best. That win for the Blues will have given Tottenham some heart but the bookies don’t give them much hope with Marathonbet going as big as 11/2 on them to stun the holders and win inside the 90 minutes.
To lift the trophy it’s 11/4 Spurs, 2/7 City. Mark Walker is at the wheel for our match preview and he thinks both teams could light up Wembey and deliver an entertaining encounter.
Leeds Utd v Man Utd usually captures the imagination and the clash at Elland Road should be no different today. Man Utd turned in one their best performances of the season when beating Leeds 6-2 in December and we could see more goals in Yorkshire today. Over 2.5 Goals is just 4/7 but that combined with Both Teams to Score is a more attractive at 5/6.
In Italy, Inter can take a massive step towards a first Serie A title since 2010. They’re 10 points ahead of great rival AC Milan with six to play so three points would take them to the brink of a monumental Scudetto. Tolu has picked out some good value bets in a game that Inter should pick up the three points.
