However the absence of boss Redknapp, for an undisclosed medical issue, will be a major blow to their hopes of leaving Russia with another victory, with Tottenham once again expected to name a youthful starting XI. That is reflected in the odds with Rubin Kazan 8/11 favourites (bet365) to win this tie and Tottenham 4/1 (Victor Chandler), while the draw is 3/1 (Ladbrokes).Roman Pavlyuchenko netted the only goal of the game when these two teams met at White Hart Lane last month, and the Russian forward is 10/1 (bet365) to get the scoring under way at Tsentralnyi Stadion. Jermain Defoe has started both group games so far and is likely to partner Pavlyuchenko once more, with the England international 9/1 to score first and 3/1 (both Paddy Power) to net anytime.Rubin Kazan are third in the standings with a record of one win, one draw and one defeat putting them three points behind their hosts and one behind second-placed PAOK. They will be keen to get revenge for the loss to Spurs last time out and a victory here would put them firmly in the race for a place in the next stage.Rubin Kazan’s goal threat comes in the form of Nelson Valdez, Aleksei Medvedev and Igor Lebedenko. Valdez is 5/1 (StanJames) to be the first goalscorer, with Medvedev and Lebedenko available at 8/1 (Ladbrokes) and 13/2 (Betfred) respectively. In the anytime goalscorer market, Valdez can be backed at 13/8 (Boylesports) while the latter two men are both 13/8 (bet365).This match comes under bet365’s “Bore Draw” promotion and Victor Chandler’s “Don’t Hit The Bar” promotion.
