After the game against Burnley, Tuchel's side will be taking on Tottenham on Thursday, February 4, and has promised the fans they would defeat their opponents.
The German gaffer was quoted by Daily Mail:
"I want to be very honest because we played the Europa League game with Dortmund and Tottenham, and I just explained it.
"When I was young there was no daily match live on the TV, so what I could actually see was one or two minutes every four weeks.
"Suddenly a club like Tottenham Hotspur came across on our sports broadcaster, I heard the name and it sounded like a big adventure and it gave me a big advantage on my friends because they had no idea where the club was.
"I was young, but that was one of my first experiences. I did not even know it was a club in London.
"But now I'm absolutely aware I work for their big rivals, and you can be very, very sure we will do everything to beat them next week!"
