Spurs are in a comfortable position but won’t be complacent

Spurs are in Germany tonight to try and keep their season alive by getting to the next stage of the Champions League. They take with them a three goal lead which should be enough to see them through.

Both Spurs and Dortmund have seen a dip in form going into tonight’s match. The German side has lost their nine point lead in the Bundesliga and are now level on points with Bayern Munich. Meanwhile Spurs have gone from title contenders to now being in a fight to retain their top four place. Spurs still have a good defensive record and it doesn’t look likely that they would concede three goals tonight against an out of form Dortmund side.

Harry Winks and Eric Dier are unlikely to start even though they have travelled with the the squad. Deli Ali is still out with a hamstring issue but it’s rumoured that he will return at the weekend.
