Consequently, this win snapped a five-game winless sequence across all tournaments.They now face a Czech side still waiting for their first UCL win of the campaign. While Spurs suffered a defensive collapse in a 5-3 loss to Paris Saint-Germain last time out, they remain well-placed in the table. Furthermore, they will be confident of extending their magnificent 22-game unbeaten run in home European matches.Tottenham Hotspur vs Slavia Prague – Match Preview and Team NewsDate: Tuesday, 9 December 2025Kick-off: 20:00 GMTVenue: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, LondonReferee: Benoît Bastien (FRA)VAR: Ivan Bebek (CRO)Last Meeting: Tottenham Hotspur 1-1 Slavia Prague, 21 February 2008, UEFA CupTeam NewsTottenham HotspurThomas Frank has been forced into a defensive reshuffle following the news that left-back Destiny Udogie sustained a soft tissue injury against Brentford. This injury will keep him out until January. Djed Spence is expected to deputise on the left flank in his absence. The injury list remains extensive, with James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, Dominic Solanke, Radu Drăgușin, and Yves Bissouma all sidelined. However, Brennan Johnson is rated as “touch and go”.Slavia PragueThe visitors have been boosted by the return of Slovakian winger Ivan Schranz, who is expected to start in attack alongside Mojmír Chytil and Lukáš Provod. Chytil arrives in red-hot form, having scored braces in back-to-back league games. However, manager Jindřich Trpišovský is without key midfielder Oscar and long-term absentees Filip Horský, Petr Ševčík, and Dominik Javorček.FormTottenham HotspurDespite the 5-3 setback in Paris, Spurs have been imperious at home in Europe. They have kept clean sheets in each of their last three home Champions League matches (W2 D1). In fact, they could keep four consecutive home clean sheets for the first time in their history in the competition. Pedro Porro has been instrumental, attempting the most crosses from open play of any full-back in the tournament.Slavia PragueSlavia are enduring a torrid continental campaign. They are winless in their last 12 matches in major European competition, their longest drought since 2009. Moreover, they have failed to score in each of their last four Champions League matches. History is not on their side either; Slavia have won only two of their previous 16 games against English sides.Predicted LineupsTottenham Hotspur predicted XI: Vicario; Porro, Danso, Van de Ven, Spence; Palhinha, Bergvall; Kudus, Simons, Odobert; RicharlisonSlavia Prague predicted XI: Staněk; Zima, Holeš, Chaloupek; Douděra, Sadílek, Zafeiris, Bořil; Schranz, Chytil, ProvodHow to watch Tottenham Hotspur vs Slavia Prague?The match will be broadcast live in the UK on TNT Sports 2 and TNT Sports Ultimate.
