You might find this hard to believe (I sure do), but Tottenham Hotspur are playing the Champions League today.
I will say that, after reading the comments on this site for the last few days, that there is a mixed feeling with respect to how Spurs should treat this game. Or even if there is an interest in watching it.
If you’re lookg for alternative matches to watch (I’ll probably stick with Spurs) there is only one in the Champions League that interests me: Atalanta versus Bayern.
On the one side, you get this really cool Atalanta team that always seems to be floating around the top in Serie A and is competitive in the Champions League. Then on the other, we have Harry Kane. And why wouldn’t I want to see Kane play?
Otherwise there are two interesting games in the EFL Championship: Wrexham-Hull and Millwall-Derby. Both have playoff permutations. Heck, Millwall are actually pushing for an automatic promotion slot.
So there are a couple options out there. However, your hoddler-in-chief will still have the Tottenham game on because that’s what I signed up for.
