Tottenham are more consistent at home in Europe than Liverpool and Arsenal
Tottenham have quietly racked up a formidable record in European competition, with their home form in continental matches being better than any other Premier League rivals who featured in Europe this season.
There has been a lot said and written about how poor Spurs have been domestically this season.
Tottenham are on course to achieve their lowest Premier League tally in Premier League history, and additionally, Spurs have already matched the most losses they have ever had in a 38-game campaign, with four more matches still to be played.
While those records will remain a huge blot on Postecoglou’s record for a long time, he has also an opportunity to become the first Spurs boss to lift a trophy in 17 years, with the Lilywhites having one foot in the Europa League final after their 3-1 win over Bodo/Glimt on Thursday.

Tottenham’s impressive European record this season
Tottenham’s form in the Premier League and the Europa League has been contrasting all season. Squawka have now revealed a stat which shows just how dominant the Lilywhites have been at home in Europe this campaign.
The data analysis platform reveals that Spurs are now unbeaten in their last 20 home matches in Europe, which shows that the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium has been an unbreachable fortress for sides from the continent.
In those 20 matches, the North London side have scored a whopping 55 goals while they have conceded just 13, keeping 11 clean sheets in the process.
Spurs’ domestic struggles will be forgotten if they win Europa League
Given how starved of silverware Spurs fans have been, there is no doubt that the pain of the Premier League season will be forgotten if they lift the Europa League trophy in Bilbao.
Postecoglou and the Tottenham players know that they have a chance to write themselves into the club’s history books forever by delivering the trophy.
However, they will not be getting ahead of themselves just yet, as they still have a job to do against Bodo/Glimt in the second leg next week.
