Tottenham v Borussia Dortmund preview and tips

The 2nd in the Premier League takes on the 2nd in the Bundesliga. Both teams are 5 points behind the leaders, Leicester City and Bayern Munich respectively.

Tottenham have to overcome a deficit of 3 goals after Dortmund triumphed (3-0) in the first leg. They beat Fiorentina 3-0 in the stage of the last 32. If they repeat the scoreline they will take the game into extra time. It looks like the best possible scenario for Pochettino’s men. However, the Spanish manager is thinking of resting Eriksen and Dembele, trying to keep them fresh for the final two months of the battle for the Premier League. Despite that, I believe Tottenham will fight to win against Dortmund. If they do score early they will try to push for a comeback.

Spus made it to the last 16 of the Europa League for the third straight season. They are now looking for a spot to the quarter-finals of the competition.

They have an excellent 5-1-0 against German opposition in White Hart Lane.

Vertonghen and Njie remain sidelined with knee injuries.

Possible lineup:
Tottenham: Lloris; Trippier, Wimmer, Alderweireld, Davies; Bentaleb, Mason; Carroll, Onomah, Son, Chadli.
Out: Njié (knee), Vertonghen (knee)
Doubtful: Eriksen (rest?), Dembélé (rest?)
Misses next match if booked: Davies

Dortmund are 13 matches unbeaten in 2016, with 11-2-0 to show. They cruised away from Porto in the last 32, winning both matches, 2-0 at home and 1-0 in Porto. Then Tottenham challenged them but they proved too good and won by 3 goals. They have not received a goal in Europe for 327 minutes.

In the Bundesliga they are 5 points behind Bayern. They didn’t manage to beat them recently (0-0), but if they keep beating everyone else they still have a chance to win the title.

Papastathopoulos returns to action. Bender and Gundogan are injured and stayed in Germany.

Possible lineup:
Dortmund: Weidenfeller; Piszczek, Papastathopoulos, Hummels, Schmelzer; Şahin, Weigl; Kagawa, Mkhitaryan; Reus, Aubameyang.
Out: Gündogan (foot), S Bender (strain)

Our bet: The bookies think this is ‘game over’ for Tottenham, but lack on respect for the home team. They might not make it to the quarter-finals after that performance in Germany, but a win tonight is more than possible and it pays well.

Home win for Tottenham (14/5, 3.80)
