Tottenham Hotspur forward Son Heung-min's record vs. Borussia Dortmund

Sports Mole looks at Tottenham Hotspur forward Son Heung-min's goalscoring record against Borussia Dortmund ahead of Wednesday's Champions League game.

Tottenham Hotspur play host to Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League on Wednesday night looking to put themselves in control of the last-16 tie before the reverse fixture in Germany.

Spurs struggled to the runners-up spot in a group containing Barcelona and Inter Milan, but Mauricio Pochettino's team have recorded three successive victories in all competitions.

The North London outfit will be without Harry Kane for the fixture at Wembley Stadium, but Son Heung-min is no stranger to facing the Bundesliga leaders.

Ahead of this week's meeting, Sports Mole assesses how the South Korean has fared in his previous outings against Dortmund.

Son represented Hamburg and Bayer Leverkusen before his switch to Spurs, and it means that the attacker has played against Dortmund on 10 different occasions.

Six of those matches came in Germany's top flight, with Son netting a total of five goals from those outings which includes back-to-back doubles for Hamburg during the 2012-13 campaign.

Four wins and a draw came from six contests in the Bundesliga, but Son was on the losing side in both matches when Spurs played Dortmund in the last 16 of the Europa League in 2016.

However, it was a different story during the closing months of 2017. Spurs recorded back-to-back wins in the Champions League with Son netting in both of those encounters.

Son heads into this week's clash having netted in each of his last three appearances against Dortmund.
