While Spurs continue to slide in the Premier League, their Champions League campaign has been far more convincing, and a victory here could place them firmly on course for a top-eight finish in the league phase and automatic qualification for the round of 16.

Thomas Frank’s side welcome Borussia Dortmund to north London, knowing their continental form has kept pressure at bay, even as domestic performances have deteriorated. 

Dortmund, meanwhile, arrive with their own inconsistencies, particularly away from home, but remain one of the most dangerous attacking sides in the competition. 

With both teams tied on points, this fixture has all the ingredients for a high-tempo encounter.

Over 1.5 goals 

This looks like a low-risk entry point given the attacking profiles of both sides. 

Dortmund’s last eight European matches have all produced over 3.5 goals, while Spurs have scored eight times across their three Champions League home wins this season. 

Even with Tottenham’s impressive defensive record at home in Europe, Dortmund’s attacking output suggests goals are likely to follow, making over 1.5 goals at 11/50 a sensible foundation bet.

Tip: Over 1.5 goals @ 11/50 

Bet explanation: This bet wins if there are at least two goals in the game between Tottenham and Dortmund.

Both teams to score 

While Tottenham have yet to concede at home in this Champions League campaign, Dortmund represent arguably their toughest attacking test so far. 

The German side have scored in all seven of their away league-phase matches since the start of last season, and boast the highest shot conversion rate (24%) in this edition of the competition. 

With Spurs’ domestic defensive issues never far from the surface, backing both teams to score at 61/100 feels well-supported by the data.

Tip: Both teams to score @ 61/100 

Bet explanation: This bet wins if both Tottenham and Dortmund score at least one goal each.

Serhou Guirassy to play 2+ shots 

Serhou Guirassy continues to be Dortmund’s most reliable attacking outlet on the European stage.

Since the start of last season, no player has been involved in more Champions League goals than the striker, and he has registered at least one shot on target in each of his last five appearances in the competition. 

Averaging two shots per game across that spell, Guirassy’s involvement in Dortmund’s attacking phases makes 2+ shots at 1/4 a strong selection, regardless of the final outcome.

Tip: Serhou Guirassy to play 2+ shots @ 1/4

Bet explanation: This bet wins if Serhou Guirassy plays at least two shots against Tottenham.
