Pacos de Ferreira face Tottenham Hotspur on Thursday

Pacos de Ferreira travel to London to face Tottenham Hotspur in the second leg of their UEFA Europa Conference League playoff game on Thursday.

Pacos de Ferreira claimed a shock 1-0 win over their English opponents in the first leg in Portugal.

The hosts head into the game off the back of a morale-boosting 1-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League.

They will look to build on that performance and overturn their first-leg deficit.

Tottenham Hotspur suffered a shock 1-0 defeat against Pacos de Ferreira when they faced off in the first leg of the final qualification round last Thursday.

Brazilian forward Lucas Silva came up trumps for Pacos de Ferreira as he scored the only goal of the game on the stroke of halftime to hand them a historic victory.

However, Tottenham quickly bounced back from that result as they returned to the Premier League to claim a hard-earned 1-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers.

It was the second straight league win for Spurs, who picked up an impressive 1-0 victory over Manchester City in their league opener.

Meanwhile, Pacos de Ferreira suffered a 3-1 home defeat at the hands of Estoril Praia when they returned to the Primeira Liga on Monday.

Bruno Lourenco, André Franco and Joãozinho were on target to hand Estoril a comeback win after Juan Delgado opened the scoring for the hosts on the half-hour mark.

Jorge Simao’s men have now lost three of their last four games across all competitions, while conceding seven goals in that time.
