Antonio Conte’s side has been impressive through the last couple of seasons, and are off to a great start in Premier League this year already. Led by Harry Kane and Son Heung-min, Spurs should make a case for a deep run as they make their first UCL appearance since the 2019-20 season. Sporting CP makes their second consecutive appearance in the tournament after exiting in the Round of 16 last season at the hands of Manchester City. They should see a relatively comfortable second place finish, as both Frankfurt and Marseille will hope to defy the odds and grab a top-two finish themselves.
