Champions League Betting Offer: Golden Goal available on Tottenham vs Ajax

Both Tottenham Hotspur and Ajax have upset the odds in reaching the Champions League semi-finals.

Spurs knocked out favourites Manchester City last time out while the Dutch side have disposed of reigning champions Real Madrid and a well-fancied Juventus side boasting the competition's all-time top scorer.

While their meeting at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Tuesday is an intriguing contest, William Hill's Golden Goal promotion also makes it an enticing punting puzzle.

Anyone placing a pre-match single bet on the match odds will see their selection settled as a winner, up to £50 in cash, if the team in question scores the first goal of the game. This concession stands regardless of whether the team in question goes on to win the match or not. Full terms and conditions can be found here.

For example, pre-game Tottenham backers at 27/20 (2.35) would see their selection paid out in cash if Spurs opened the scoring, even if they end up drawing or losing the contest after 90 minutes.

Golden Goal only applies to your first pre-match bet and the maximum pay-out is £50 in cash plus your qualifying stake. These are factors worth considering for any punters wanting to maximise the potential returns available.

Ajax are available at 21/10 (3.10) and look the more appealing prospect given this concession is in place. Tottenham have several key injuries to contend with including Harry Winks and Harry Kane while Heung-min Son is suspended. That leaves Spurs looking quite depleted in the final third as evident in their lacklustre performance against West Ham on Saturday.

The visitors have had a full week to prepare for their trip to north London and have shown their attacking talent throughout the competition. Erik ten Hag's side have won their last three Champions League away games scoring eight times in that run.

While Tottenham's achievements shouldn't be overlooked, Mauricio Pochettino's side still look too short in the betting given their injury list and hectic schedule. Ajax have scored in every away game since the start of the group stages and at 21/10 (3.10) with the Golden Goal offer they offer the value in this first leg.
