In their last match, Southampton took a commanding lead against Manchester United but let go of it to draw 2 – 2 at the end of it and they will really regret dropping the two points, as with that they fell back into the relegation region and being the team with the least wins in the season – one – three points would have given them a big boost and taking on a team with the third best winning rate in the league offers a big challenge for the Saints. A key to their woes this season is the fact that Southampton have the fourth worst defensive record, having conceded 26 goals in 14 matches while in attack they have not been so good either, scoring just 12, which averages just under a goal per game. Spurs on the other hand have an average of 1.8 goals a game with 15 scored in 14 matches and have conceded an average 1.07 goals a game. Spurs have played 21 matches across all competitions this season and they have failed to score in just one of them – against Manchester City. They have scored two or more in five of their last seven and kept two clean sheets in the process and they are facing a team that has conceded two or more in three of their last five and carries an eight – game winless run. Southampton have managed just two clean sheets in the last 10 league matches and are without a win in the same duration. The win over Crystal Palace at the start of September remains their only win in 15 matches in the Premier League and they have picked just one point from a possible 15 in the last five away league matches this term, in the process conceding 14 goals and managing just one clean sheet.
