Southampton, Recent FormLosing 2-0 home to Brentford won't leave the Southampton squad too downbeat, given the former sits a full 14 places above them in the league. They achieved 67% possession in that match and had 7 strikes at goal, with 1 hitting the target, up against Brentford's tally of 11 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
Having conceded 5 goals and scored just 3 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 7 points. With no goals in 3 of their last 6 matches at home, they are showing signs of a problem finding the net at their home ground. With a defensive record that shows one or more goals given away in 12 of their 13 home matches so far this season, boss Rubén Sellés will not be happy with his squad's capabilities at keeping a clean sheet at home.
They've had a dismal run of form at St. Mary's Stadium recently, losing all but 1 of their last 6 home games, their solitary win providing little consolation. They've shown terrible form at St. Mary's Stadium this season, losing 8 of their 13 home league games.
Tottenham Hotspur, Recent FormTottenham Hotspur have set themselves up nicely for this match by securing a 3-1 home win against Nottingham Forest in their previous league match. Their share of possession in that meeting was 56%, while racking up 15 shots along the way, 7 of which were on target. Nottingham Forest had 9 shots on goal with 5 on target.
Manager Antonio Conte will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 6 goals conceded in the same period. Away goals have been high on their agenda recently, having scored in 5 of their last 6 away league games.
They have had a good run of form recently, winning 4 out of their last 6 games.
On an individual basis, Harry Kane will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 20 goals in Tottenham Hotspur's 27 league games this season.
A defeat for Southampton in their last match against Tottenham Hotspur was not completely unexpected, but they will have been disappointed to lose by 3 goals.
Southampton will feel sure their attacking prowess will yield results in this one, having scored at least 1 goal in the previous 14 encounters with The Lilywhites. In their recent meetings The Saints have struggled to keep Spurs at bay, having conceded 14 goals in their last 5 games.
With 4 goals notched up from the last 3 league meetings against Southampton at their home ground St. Mary's Stadium, Spurs man Heung-min Son will be looking for more of the same in this one.
Southampton manager Rubén Sellés has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Juan Larios (Muscle), Tino Livramento (Cruciate ligament) and Ainsley Maitland-Niles (Knock) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Antonio Conte has a number of injury concerns in his Spurs squad to contend with: Rodrigo Bentancur (Cruciate ligament), Yves Bissouma (Ankle), Hugo Lloris (Knee), Emerson Royal (Knock) and Ryan Sessegnon (Hamstring)
