Betting tips for Barcelona vs Tottenham 11.12.2018

Barcelona and Tottenham come face-to-face this Tuesday night at Camp Nou in a challenge to qualify for Group VI of the Champions League. Barcelona come here motivated after a victory in the Catalan derby, thrashing Espanyol 0-4, and has already qualifying to the next phase more than assured. On the other side arrives a Tottenham who still has nothing guaranteed, and need the 3 points to ensure access to the next stage of the race, as Inter Milan has been very much in pursuit.

Barcelona are in 1st place with 13 points, the result of 4 victories and 1 draw, with partial of 13 goals scored and 4 goals conceded. With 5 points clear of Tottenham and Inter Milan, qualification as a group leader is more than assured and Barcelona can afford to relax and play without pressure on this challenge, with Ernesto Valverde being able to rest the elements of the team. The Catalans come here after a comfortable win on the ground of the neighboring Espanyol (0-4), a game where they demonstrated great quality and were dominant during much of the meeting.

Sergi Roberto, Rafinha, Malcom and Samuel Umtiti are all out, all injured. This is a challenge where some players may be entitled to minutes of play, such as goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen and defender Thomas Vermaelen. Having played the 90 minutes on Saturday, Messi can also start on the bench here. Barcelona beat Tottenham 4-2 at Wembley on the opening lap, but without some of the main elements here things may not be the same.

Champions League Tottenham are in second place with 7 points, 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats, with 8 goals scored and 9 goals conceded. The Spurs responded well to the defeat against Arsenal (4-2), and won the following two games, first against Southampton (3-1) and then against Leicester City (0-2). That defeat against Arsenal is the only snub in the last 9 competitive games, in all competitions, having won the remaining 8.

This is a game of all or nothing for the Londoners, who find themselves with the same points as Inter Milan, who in turn receives the PSV. With the Italians having a theoretically accessible game, Tottenham have no choice but to seek victory at Camp Nou in order to keep alive the possibility of remaining in the Champions League. Pochettino continues with Davinson Sánchez and Dembélé from outside for this game, both injured, and still sees in doubt the presence of Wanyama, Trippier, Serge Aurier and Lamela.



Tottenham come here and only victory matters to them, otherwise the chances of being out of the Champions League are quite high. On the other side of the field will be Barcelona without some of the main elements, since the qualification as a group leader is assured and Ernesto Valverde can afford to run players. It is anticipated an agitated game and with opportunities of goal for both sides of the field.
