The figures edge towards a Tottenham win, possibly 1-0 with a midfielder scoring, but they are not hugely decisive given our poor European away record where we have only scored 1 goal or less in 12 away games out of the last 20 and not won any of them. We seem so often to play not to lose rather than to win, not very successfully.
