Spurs vs Qarabag | How to watch, team news, kit colours, key information

We step into UEFA Europa League action for the first time since 2021 this evening when Qarabag come to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

It’s our first foray into the new-style league stage of the competition – which has replaced the group stage from this season onwards – and sees us welcome the Azerbaijani side to north London for the second time in nine years after we faced them in this competition at White Hart Lane back in 2015, when a certain Heung-Min Son marked his home debut with his first two goals for the Club.
