1 Includes two 1995 Intertoto Cup matches against Lucerne and Östers where Tottenham played as hosts away from their home stadium, at The Goldstone Ground. They lost both matches and Tottenham was banned from UEFA European competitions for the following season, after fielding under-strength sides.[4][5]
2 Tottenham’s final group stage match at home in the 2021–22 UEFA Europa Conference League against Stade Rennais FC did not take place due to numerous positive COVID-19 tests in the Tottenham Hotspur squad. The UEFA Appeals Body declined Tottenham’s request to rearrange the game before the 31st December deadline which meant they had forfeited the game, awarding a 3–0 win for Rennes.[6][7]
