Tottenham Hotspur
We take on Slovenian side NS Mura for the first time ever this evening (Thursday 30 September, 8pm UK) in our second match in the group stage of the new UEFA Europa Conference League.
We came from behind to secure a point from a 2-2 draw at Stade Rennais on matchday one a fortnight ago, while Mura lost 2-0 at home to Vitesse. Since then, they’ve beaten Maribor – who we played in the Europa League in 2012 – and subsequently drawn back-to-back games in the Slovenian league.
