Tottenham will host Southampton as Premier League action resumes, with both teams coming from wins in the FA Cup. Tottenham go into the game with 36 points from 20 matches and are placed seventh. Southampton on the other hand, are 12th with 25 points. These two sides go to the game with different targets; Spurs looking to leap into the top four while Southampton are eying a place in the top half. The home team goes to this game without a clean sheet in the last six matches. They have two clean sheets only in the last 10. Twice in the last three matches, they’ve conceded two or more goals but they’ve scored two or more goals in three of their last five matches. Three of Spurs’ last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals. In their last game, Spurs beat Brighton 3-1 in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

Southampton will also be going back to league action, after a winning outing in the FA Cup, where they beat Coventry City 2-1. They have done better in the last few matches than earlier in the season, and go into this game with just one loss in their last five matches. Three times in their last five matches, Southampton have been able to score two or more goals and twice in the same run, they’ve conceded two or more. Both sides have scored in Southampton’s last five matches and four of their last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals. Southampton do not have a very good run against Tottenham; they are actually winless in their last five meetings with Spurs. Notably, both sides have scored in the last five meetings between these two.
