The Matchday 6 fixture of the group stage of the 2025/26 Champions League between Tottenham (England) and Slavia Prague (Czech Republic) will take place on December 9 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London. Tottenham – Slavia Prague: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
Tottenham
The Londoners travelled to Paris in the last round and were beaten 3-5 by reigning European champions PSG. That was their first defeat in the current group stage, having previously recorded two wins and two draws. The English side have slipped to 16th in the standings, but remain only two points off the top eight. Notably, Tottenham have met Slavia four times in European competition without ever losing to the Czechs (three wins and one draw). Overall, the club are unbeaten in their last seven European matches against Czech opposition (five wins and two draws).
- The English side are unbeaten in 9 of their last 11 Champions League matches (4 wins and 5 draws).
- At least one team failed to score in 5 of Tottenham's last 7 matches in this competition.
- At home in this European competition, the Londoners are unbeaten in six straight matches – 4 wins and 2 draws.
Predicted line-up Tottenham (4-3-3)
Guglielmo Vicario – Jed Spence, Micky van de Ven, Pedro Porro, Cristian Romero – Lucas Bergwijn, Xavi Simons, Rodrigo Bentancur – Mohammed Kudus, Richarlison, Randal Kolo Muani.
Defender Destiny Udogie and striker Dominic Solanke remain sidelined through injury.
Slavia Prague
The club's last two group-stage games were played at home. First, the Czechs were beaten 0-3 by Arsenal, then they drew 0-0 with Athletic. Slavia have yet to record a win in the group, drawing three and losing two. In addition, the team failed to score in their previous four matches in this competition. With 3 points, they sit 31st in the table and are three points shy of the top 24. It is also worth noting that the club have failed to beat English opposition in 14 of their last 16 European meetings (4 draws and 10 defeats).
- At least one opponent failed to score in 6 of Slavia's last 8 matches in this competition.
- The club have not won in 8 of their last 9 Champions League away games (3 draws and 5 defeats).
- No more than two goals were scored in 9 of the Czechs' last 12 away matches in this competition.

Match prediction Tottenham – Slavia Prague
I expect the English to claim a comfortable win in the upcoming fixture. Tottenham need to finish inside the top eight and a victory here is essential — it should not be overly difficult given their strong home form. The club are unbeaten in six successive Champions League home matches, recording 4 wins and 2 draws, and kept clean sheets in their last three home games in this competition.
Slavia have failed to score in four consecutive group matches and are likely to struggle to find the net again. The Czechs have lost 5 of their last 7 away Champions League games and have not won in 16 recent matches in the main stages of this competition (7 draws and 9 defeats). Therefore, as a conservative pick, my prediction is – Tottenham with a -1 handicap
