Tottenham vs Copenhagen | Football Preview & Betting Tips | 4 November 2025

Tottenham vs Copenhagen — UEFA Champions League, 4 November 2025

European nights return to north London as Tottenham host Danish champions Copenhagen. Both sides are chasing knockout qualification, and the crowd at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium should be roaring with expectation and a healthy contingent from Denmark adding to the noise. Tottenham boss Frank will be hoping to give the home fans something to cheer after failing to win at home yet in the Premier League

🗞️ Introduction

Tottenham come in on a mixed run, strong on the road but poor at home. They’ve blended possession control with rapid transitions, averaging 58% of the ball. Copenhagen have had a mixed European campaign but remain well-drilled domestically, playing compact 4-3-3 football with set-piece threat. Spurs will likely dominate territory, while the visitors look to frustrate and counter at pace.

Injuries: No confirmed absences as of 2 November; both managers are expected to field near full-strength sides.

🔑 Tactical Trends
  • Possession & shape: Spurs average 58% possession and rotate between 4-2-3-1 and 4-3-3. Copenhagen hover around 52%, preferring structured lines and quick vertical passing.
  • Set pieces matter: Spurs net 0.6 goals per game from set plays, while Copenhagen’s 0.5 shows similar strength. Both sides defend these situations tightly, conceding less than 0.4 apiece.
  • Shot production: Tottenham produce around 14.5 attempts per game (5.5 on target); FCK at 11.0 (4.0 on target). Expect Spurs’ higher volume to create pressure, though Copenhagen’s discipline keeps them in games.
📋 Form

Tottenham: 6W-3D-1L, 19 goals for, 11 against. Strong recent balance with multiple late winners and consistent xG edge of +0.5 per game.

Copenhagen: 6W-2D-2L, 16 for, 11 against. Well-organised but very vulnerable to players with quality.

If you’re on mobile, a quick rotate helps you see the labels and bars properly.

Spurs typically create the slightly better chances on average (1.7 xG) while keeping opponents to around 1.2 xGA. Copenhagen sit near 1.4 xG and 1.3 xGA, suggesting a modest expected edge for the hosts.

⚖️ Head-to-Head

These two have only met twice competitively — both in the 2011 Champions League group stage. Tottenham won 2–1 at Parken (20 Sep 2011) and 3–1 at White Hart Lane (1 Nov 2011). A fresh-era match-up with little direct recent sample adds intrigue to the tactical battle.

🧠 KickTheBookies Prediction

With a possession tilt, higher shot output and a slight xG advantage, Spurs should fashion the better moments. Copenhagen’s compact shape and restart threat keeps it competitive, but Tottenham’s later-game trend can tell.

Prediction: 2–1 home win.

💡 Betting Tips

Main pick: Tottenham to Win — stronger recent PPG (2.0), superior chance creation and home edge.

Value angle: Over 8.5 Corners — combined averages (~11–12) point to a busy flag count.
