The 21-year-old has struggled so far this season scoring just three Premier League goals and was off the pace in the North London derby defeat at the Emirates.
If Alli does feature at the Westfalenstadion on Wednesday, Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino has warned him to be on his best behaviour due to the identity of the referee.
Clement Turpin will be in charge, the same ref who reported Alli to Fifa for his “middle finger gesture” during England’s World Cup qualifier against Slovakia in September.
Alli served a one-game ban and has been warned by his manager Turpin could have his eye on him.
Poch said: “It’s important to be aware, I will tell Dele to be careful if he plays.

“Always it’s important, the referee moves on and I’m sure there’s nothing in his mind to ban him for that situation.
“But it is always good to know, I will tell Dele.”
