Michael Owen has predicted Tottenham Hotspur to win against LASK in the Europa League on Thursday evening.

Tottenham will take on LASK away from home in Austria in Europa League Group J.

Spurs will head into the match at the Linzer Stadion on the back of a goalless draw with Chelsea away from home at Stamford Bridge in London in the Premier League.

The North London club got the better of Ludogorets Razgrad at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in their last Europa League game.

Jose Mourinho’s side are second in Group J at the moment with nine points from four matches, level on points with leaders Royal Antwerp.

Former Liverpool striker Owen has backed Tottenham to pick up all three points against LASK in Austria courtesy of a 2-0 victory.

Owen said:” Tottenham come into this having won 6 of their last 7 Europa League matches. Interestingly, the Londoners have scored at least 3 goals in 5 of their last 6 in the competition and will be hoping to continue that run to secure top spot.

“LASK have won two and lost two in the Europa League, so far. They sit 3 points behind Spurs and will be aware that coming away empty handed here could dash any hopes of securing a place in the next round.

“With the away side in such solid form both domestically and in Europe, it’s hard to see them not getting a result. I think Jose Mourinho’s men will do just that and continue their excellent run of form.”
