Tottenham v Borussia Dortmund Betting Preview – UEFA Champions League 13th September 7.45pm
Can Spurs do the business at Wembley? Punters will rightly be asking that question. Tottenham’s domestic home form there hasn’t been great, and they will remember back to their last Champions League campaign played on the ground as well, where they failed to deliver. They have to get that out of their mindsets though and be switched on, because Borussia Dortmund, with their scoring power are not going to be a pushover by any stretch of the imagination.

Tottenham v Borussia Dortmund Betting Tips
Spurs and Wembley. Not a great fit? How will they fare back there in the UEFA Champions League? Their European campaign there last season didn’t go too well, winning just once there. Will they be able to make a positive start to get some momentum going? Spurs have won only one of their four matches at Wembley in Europe and as well as welcoming Borussia Dortmund there is also going to be a visit from Real Madrid in the group. Spurs met Dortmund in the 2015/16 Europa League round of sixteen and Dortmund destroyed the Lilywhites with a 5-1 aggregate win. In getting back to the group stage this season, this is the first time in consecutive seasons in their history that they have been in the European Cup. In their debut season in 2010/11, they went to the quarter finals but finished third in their group last season. Last season Tottenham picked up just three points from their three home games in the group stage, losing against both Monaco and Bayer Leverkusen. Harry Kane is a quote of 10/11 in the bet365 anytime goalscorer market and he is up and running with goals now for the season.
This actually should be a good end to end contest and both teams to score at bet365 is a price of 4/7 while you can back this fixture to go over 3.5 goals at 13/8. In losing at home against Bayer Leverkusen last season, Tottenham had put together a seven match unbeaten streak (W6 D1) against German opposition. It also means now that they have lost back to back home games against German opponents as well. Dortmund are no pushovers in Europe although, after a strong start in last season’s group stage, they went off the boil a bit, including their last two away games. They have gotten out of their group in each of their last four campaigns. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will be a threat to the Tottenham defence and he just had an eight match scoring streak snapped in a 0-0 draw with Freiburg on the weekend. Aubameyang is 20/21 in the bet365 anytime goalscorer market. Dortmund’s lost 4-3 at Liverpool in their last trip to England, despite taking the lead twice in the game. That was in the 2015/16 Europa League quarter finals, and from their four group stage meetings with Arsenal in the Champions League, have gone W1 L3 in North London. They have made a solid start to their domestic campaign with a W2 D1 record in the Bundesliga with no goals conceded.
