Tottenham Hotspur have a massive Champions League match ahead of them this evening.

Antonio Conte’s side are preparing for the visit of Europa League champions Eintracht Frankfurt.

Speaking to TalkSPORT, Jamie O’Hara predicted how he thought tonight’s Tottenham match would unfold.

Tottenham drew against Frankfurt in their previous meeting last week.

It leaves both sides of four points going into the match, with the winner taking a big step towards the knockout stages.

Conte has received a boost as Lucas Moura is back from an injury lay-off.

However, the game tonight has come too early for Dejan Kulusevski, with Conte saying ‘it would be stupid’ to risk him.

O’Hara makes Tottenham v Frankfurt prediction

O’Hara backed his Tottenham in tonight’s game against Frankfurt, saying: “A frustrating game for us (last week against Frankfurt), but a decent performance.

“I think at home we’ll be better. We still need to win this game, this is not a game where you can take your foot off the gas.

“This is a must win. We’ve got two home games now, and I think we go to Marseille last.

“We’ve got to win the next two to make sure we go through the group.

“I think we’ll win this one 2-0.”

Tottenham are certainly favourites going into the match, given their positive start to the season in the Premier League.

They suffered a blip against Sporting earlier in their European campaign, conceding two very late goals.

This was followed up by a defeat to Arsenal, but a win against a stubborn Brighton side at the weekend suggests their form is turning around.

O’Hara’s Tottenham prediction suggests he’s seen enough of a turnaround from their previous poor results.

Conte will be pushing to achieve qualification as quickly as possible to give him an opportunity to rest some of his squad.

Spurs have ten matches between now and the World Cup.

A poor result tonight and Conte will be forced to continue pushing his most important players to the limit.
