Score, Highlights

Short Preview

As Tottenham Hotspur prepares to host Borussia Dortmund in the UEFA Champions League on January 20, 2026, both squads arrive with mixed recent form. Tottenham has secured only one victory in their last five outings, raising concerns about their consistency and momentum heading into the clash.
