Tottenham vs Olympiacos prediction: Tottenham line-up
Tottenham head into Greece for their first Champions League game of the season against the Greek champions in what should be a feisty encounter.
Spurs’ memory of the final in Madrid will still be on their mind but they can’t be dwelling onto that for too long and will be looking to get off and running after having their most convincing victory of the season so far against Palace on the weekend.
