Mauricio Pochettino on Dortmund vs Spurs: 'We must be aggressive to beat Dortmund'

Tottenham Hotspur’s hopes of lifting the Premier League title have well and truly faded following recent results, but Mauricio Pochettino’s side are still very much alive in the Champions League.

They beat Borussia Dortmund home and away in last season’s group stage, and Spurs take a healthy lead to the Westfalenstadion after they ran out 3-0 winners at Wembley three weeks ago.

Second-half goals from Son Heung-Min, Jan Vertonghen and Fernando Llorente have left the Bundesliga table toppers with a mountain to climb.

Dortmund have won just one of their last seven games in all competitions, and only goal difference now separates them from second-placed Bayern Munich at the top of the table.

They won’t be giving up on this tie though, Dortmund are unbeaten at home this campaign and Signal Iduna Park’s iconic ‘yellow wall’ will be in full voice as they look to become just the third team in Champions League history to overturn a three-goal first leg deficit.

What time does it start?

The game kicks off at 8pm (GMT).

Where can I watch it?

The match will be shown live on BT Sport 2, coverage will begin at 7pm.
