Tottenham Vs Bayern Munich: 3 players who could change the game own their own in the Champions League clash tonight in London.
Tottenham will face Bayern Munich in the Champions League clash in the much anticipate clash of the group stage round at the Tottenham Hotspurs stadium.
Tottenham had a tough start domestically and in Europe too. The North London club had a draw against Olympiacos in the last European fixture.
Meanwhile, they lie at the 7th position in the Premier League with 11 points after 7 games so far. On the other hand, Bayern Munich kicked their campaign with a thumping victory of 3-0 against Crvena Zvezda.
Moreover, they once again sit at the top of the table in the Bundesliga with 14 points, just a point above fierce rivals Borussia Dortmund. Thus, it can be said that the Bavarians have once again picked up the form.
Nevertheless, the game between the two sides will be a thing to look out, as two European giants would be vying against each other in the apex European tournament.
There is no doubt about the quality of individual players in both the teams, and it would most probably influence the outcome of the game.
1. Heung-Min Son
Heung-Min Son made a late start to the league due to injury problems, but the South Korean International made an impressive return for his team.
In the 7 matches across all competitions, Son has managed to score 2 goals and gave 3 assists, making him a massive threat for any opposition across all tournaments.
Son is a sure-starter in the star-studded squad at the North London club. His role behind Harry Kane is very influential and gives him freedom to create or score inside the 18-yard-box.
Plus with Tottenham playing at their home certainly has an advantage over the Bavarians, and Son will be a crucial player for Spurs in this match.
2. Robert Lewandowski
When it comes to the Champions League, who can forget Robert Lewandowski. The Polish International has played around 81 games in the competition in his career and has scored 54 goals in the process.
Making him the sixth highest top scorer in the Champions league, only behind Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Karim Benzema who are currently active.
In his ninth season in the tournament, Lewandowski has shown that he means to score even more goals, after he bagged another against Crvena Zvezda.
Lewandowski is surely the biggest threat to Tottenham from Bayern Munich, and would be lethal in front of the goal. Spurs would have surely planned to stop the 31-year-old superstar.
3. Harry Kane
Harry Kane is regarded among the current top-3 strikers in the world considering his current form. Kane has played in two competitions this season as of now and has opened his goal-scoring account.
The English International has bagged 6 goals and 1 assist in 8 games he played this season. A very good start to his season. The player is also tipped to top the charts of the Champions League if Tottenham does well in the tournament.
Meanwhile, Kane is also in contention to be the top scorer in the Premier League, considering, he has entered in his peak years. Furthermore, he also scored the only goal for Tottenham against Olympiacos in the last group stage match.
The 26-year-old striker will probably the best player on the pitch in this tie, and a major concern for Bayern Munich’s ageing defence.
