To my surprise, bookmakers are now pricing Tottenham as clear favourites, with Tottenham's odds at 1.61 and Eintracht's at 2.18. Maybe these are inflated expectations for the first game, which will be held in England? It seems to me that if Tottenham do not achieve a serious advantage at home (two or more goals), then in the return game Eintrach will be the favorite.

It was still early odds. I still expect some adjustment to happen when we're getting closer to the matchday. I clearly see how Tottenham odds is most likely moving down, and expect them to have odds closer to the their opponent.

The first leg is gonna a home game for them, and they obviously get a small advantage than Frankfurt. 
Maybe Tottenham performance in their last home match must have been the reason for the odd which clearly favours Tottenham to win. With some of their big players returning from injuries and no news about fresh injuries to their some of their important players might also have influenced the odds. Although I strongly believe that Tottenham Hotspur will win the match at home. Tottenham are not a small side, just that this season they haven't been consistent in the league due to injuries. If all their important players are fit, I don't see why they can't beat Eintracht Frankfurt especially if they are playing at home. So if the bookmakers are favouring them to win, they are not wrong.
