The Matchday 4 clash in the 2025/26 Champions League group stage between Tottenham (England) and Copenhagen (Denmark) will take place on November 4 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London. Tottenham vs. Copenhagen: prediction and betting odds, statistics.
Tottenham
The Londoners are unbeaten in the group stage but have only accumulated 5 points, placing them 15th in the tournament standings. The club defeated Villarreal 1-0 at home in the first round and then played two away matches, drawing with Bodø/Glimt (2-2) and Monaco (0-0). It's also worth noting that the English side has kept clean sheets in 3 of their last 4 Champions League games.
- In the last 9 matches in this European competition, Tottenham has suffered only 1 defeat (3 wins and 5 draws).
- No more than two goals have been scored in 8 of Tottenham's last 11 Champions League games.
- At home in this tournament, the Londoners have a 5-match unbeaten streak – 3 wins and 2 draws.
Predicted lineup for Tottenham (4-4-2)
Guglielmo Vicario – Kevin Danso, Djed Spence, Micky van de Ven, Pedro Porro – João Palhinha, Rodrigo Bentancur, Mohammed Kudus, Xavi Simons – Brennan Johnson, Randal Kolo Muani.

Copenhagen
The Scandinavians have yet to secure a victory after three rounds of the group stage. Although the team started well, managing a home draw with Bayer (2-2), they were subsequently defeated away by Qarabag (0-2) and at home by Dortmund (2-4). With 1 point, Copenhagen is positioned only 32nd.

Tottenham vs. Copenhagen: Match Prediction
The Londoners have a solid record in the Champions League and are likely to continue their unbeaten run in this tournament. Moreover, Tottenham has not lost at home in 21 consecutive European matches (17 wins and 4 draws). In addition, Tottenham has not been defeated in the group stage of the Champions League in their last 7 matches (3 wins and 4 draws).
On the other hand, the Danes have won only 2 of their last 21 away matches in the main draw of this European competition (4 draws and 15 losses). Furthermore, Copenhagen performs poorly against Premier League teams: in their last 19 encounters with English clubs, they have only 2 wins (5 draws and 12 losses), and away – 2 draws and 7 losses.
I believe that, albeit with a narrow margin, the Londoners will overcome the Scandinavians. Therefore, my prediction is "Tottenham with a handicap (-1)"
