The Lilywhites will look to shake off the disappointment of the weekend with full concentration on a competition we can do well in. And given AVB’s desire to win a trophy this season, I am sure we should see some fresh faces in the squad as we are still in the hunt to qualify to the group stages.
Maribor are sitting pretty on top of their league in Slovenia but have yet to beat an English side in competitive football. There are some injuries to key Maribor players while Spurs are still without Kaboul, Parker, BAE and Dembele. Expect Lloris to start in goal and also a start for new dad Gareth Bale. The team is beginning to understand the AVB system and do create chances. But we do need to start scoring in Europe as well. A win will help us maintain pressure on group leaders Lazio who is expected to beat Panathinaikos. The key would be to not sit back and think this is an easy fixture. We must attack from the get go.
