Euro Nights Return To WHL!

So after the shambles of Monday night, European football returns to The Lane with Spurs still hoping to record both their first win and first clean sheet of the season. We should see the return of King, Bentley, Jenas etc to the starting line-up and they will hopefully be aware of how important this game is for Spurs. With the away leg to come, we need a cushion of a nice lead and no away goals conceded before we head to the Wisla Stadium.

The opponents on Thursday night are Wisla Krakow (nicknamed White Star), the Polish champions who defeated Barca 1-0 recently and a team who will provide us with a tough hurdle in our bid to make the group stages of the competition. Wisla currently lie in 5th place in the league after 5 games played.

The Polish side who are managed by Maciej skorza will go into Thursday nights game currently ranked 154th in the Uefa Club Rankings with Spurs in 33rd place. However, Wisla should not be underestimated, having Won the Polish Championship (Ekstraklasa) and finishing as runners up in both the Polish Cup and the Polish Super Cup last season.

The main threat is likely to come from Tomasz Dawidowski and Paweł Brożek, the latter having score 43 goals in 111 appearances for Wisla in what is his 2nd spell at the club.

Wisla's 1st Team Squad is as follows:
1
Ilie Cebanu

Peter Šinglár

Marcin Baszczyński

Arkadiusz Głowacki
