Tottenham Hotspur will be looking to take another step towards the Europa League knockout stages when they face off against Bulgarian outfit Ludogorets Razgrad on Thursday evening.
Spurs are one of three sides currently sitting on six points in Group J, with Royal Antwerp and LASK Linz hot on the trail of Jose Mourinho's team, who top the rankings heading into gameweek four.
Tottenham will be brimming with confidence heading into this match after a trademark Mourinho performance saw the North London outfit beat Manchester City 2-0 in the Premier League, with Son Heung-min and Giovani Lo Celso's goals proving decisive in the capital.
