Tottenham Hotspur are two points off of the top four in the Premier League and could move into the Champions League qualification places with a win over Southampton.

Spurs are unbeaten in five straight games in all competitions versus the Saints and are seeking a sixth straight match without a loss against the south coast club. Antonio Conte’s team fell 2-0 to Chelsea in their most recent Premier League game.

The defeat was Tottenham Hotspur’s first Premier League loss under the leadership of Conte. Southampton are aiming to hand Conte a second straight league loss. However, Southampton have not won in London against Spurs since 2015-16.

Spurs picked up 11 points from the last 18 points available in the Premier League. They outscored their last six opponents 10-7 in the league. Tottenham Hotspur are unbeaten in five straight home matches going into the midweek clash in London.

Southampton collected nine points from the last 18 points available. The Saints were +2 in goals with 12 goals scored and 10 conceded across their last six matches.

Ralph Hassenhuttl’s team has been poor on the road this term. Southampton have picked up nine points from 33 points possible on the road. Five of their last six matches in the Premier League finished without a win away from home.

Conte is unlikely to have Oliver Skipp or Japhet Tanganga available to play Both players are carrying injuries. Eric Dier is in line to return from a thigh injury. Heung-min Son should be available after being removed from Spurs’ FA Cup fourth round win over Brighton early.

Hassenhuttl has six players on the injured and absent list. William Smallbone is a slight doubt due to a calf issue. Moussa Djenepo is likely to play following his exploits at the Africa Cup of Nations.

Goalkeeper Alex McCarthy is ruled out of the game with a thigh issue. Nathan Tella and Lyanco are both ruled out of the match due to injuries. Striker Armando Broja is a major doubt to play. Broja will be a big miss if he doesn’t play. He has five goals, which is second-most in the league for Southampton.

Tottenham have won their last six home matches against Southampton in all competitions. Spurs have scored at least two goals in their last six home games versus Southampton in all competitions.

Spurs should keep their excellent form against Southampton going with a win to nil at home. Once again, Spurs should score at least 2.0 goals versus the Saints.
