Tottenham v PSV facts

Tottenham and PSV are both running out of time in Group B as they meet again in north London still searching for a first win in this season's UEFA Champions League.

• A 2-2 draw in Eindhoven on matchday three proved little use to either side in their hopes of reaching the round of 16. Goals from Lucas Moura and Harry Kane put Spurs in front after Hirving Lozano's 30th-minute opener for PSV, only for Luuk de Jong to snatch a point three minutes from time after Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris had been sent off.

• With both teams having already been beaten by Barcelona and Internazionale, that left them with one point apiece, five adrift of second-placed Inter and eight behind Barça. That means both Spurs and PSV will be unable to finish in the top two if they fail to win on matchday four and Inter are victorious at home to Barcelona in the other game.

Previous meetings
• Before matchday three the sides had met in only one previous tie, in the last 16 of the 2007/08 UEFA Cup. Each won 1-0 away, PSV emerging triumphant in London before Spurs turned the tables in Eindhoven – but it was the Dutch club who had the last laugh, going through 6-5 on penalties.

Form guide
Tottenham
• Spurs followed their opening 2-1 defeat at Inter – when they had led until the 86th minute – with a 4-2 loss at home to Barça on matchday two, their heaviest home defeat in the UEFA Champions League and joint heaviest in Europe.

• Third in last season's Premier League, Tottenham are in the group stage for the fourth time – and the third season in a row.

• Spurs got to the round of 16 in 2017/18, losing to Juventus. Tottenham drew the away first leg 2-2 – having been 2-0 down – but went out after a 2-1 reverse at Wembley. This season's results mean they are without a win in five European fixtures, losing three in a row – including the last two at Wembley – before drawing in the Netherlands.

• Mauricio Pochettino's side won all three home games in last season's group stage, against Borussia Dortmund, Real Madrid and APOEL. Before beating Dortmund on matchday one they had won just one of their previous five European home fixtures.

• The London club's last home game against visitors from the Netherlands ended in a 4-1 defeat of Twente in the 2010/11 group stage. That 2008 defeat by PSV is Spurs' sole home reverse against Dutch clubs (W3 D3).

• Tottenham's most successful UEFA Champions League campaign came in 2010/11, when they reached the quarter-finals.

PSV
• The Eredivisie champions went down 4-0 at Barcelona in their opening Group B fixture – their joint heaviest UEFA Champions League defeat – before being beaten 2-1 at home by Inter on matchday two.

• The Eindhoven club claimed their 24th Dutch league title in 2017/18 – the third time in four seasons they have lifted the Eredivisie crown.

• This is PSV's 16th season in the group stage – more than any other Dutch side. They qualified by beating Belarusian champions BATE Borisov 6-2 on aggregate in the play-offs (3-2 away, 3-0 home).

• The first-leg win at BATE ended a ten-game run without a European away win for PSV (D4 L6).

• The Eindhoven club failed to win a game in their last group appearance, in 2016/17 (D2 L4), and have not won in their last 11 UEFA Champions League fixtures, group stage to final (D5 L6).

• Their last away win in the UEFA Champions League proper was a 1-0 success at CSKA Moskva in November 2007. Their record since then is D3 L8.

• PSV's 2017/18 European campaign lasted only one tie – they lost 1-0 home and away to Croatian club Osijek in the UEFA Europa League third qualifying round.

• European Cup winners in 1988, PSV have reached the UEFA Champions League knockout stage only four times – most recently in 2015/16, when they got to the last 16.

• PSV drew 0-0 at Manchester United in the 2015/16 UEFA Champions League group stage, their last visit to England. They have won only once in their last nine away games against Premier League clubs (D3 L5).
