Coming into Sunday, January 26, 2025, at 3:00 PM GMT, Tottenham Hotspur will host Leicester City, with both teams determined to earn vital points in this Premier League match. The game will be held in London at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Head-to-Head Statistics
This is traditionally Tottenham's tie to boss, though - in their last five Premier League meetings, Spurs are ahead by three wins to Leicester's two, with Spurs cruising to a 3-1 victory in the latest match and very impressive up-front.
Currently, Tottenham is 15th in the league, which is not a position that reflects their ambition. The squad is ravaged with injuries to key players like goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario and defenders Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven. Even in the face of such adversities, Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou hailed the resilience of his side, especially after their 3-2 win over Hoffenheim in the Europa League. reuters.com
Now, the exact opposite is what Leicester City stands on, right with them 19th. Under manager Ruud van Nistelrooy, the Foxes have let in seven losses consecutively within the Premier League to heighten fears of its relegation. From recent shows, their team reveals a susceptibility at their defense, losing consistently with numerous goals. (talkSPORT)
Prediction
A win for Spurs is tipped given the form and injury question marks, but there is the suggestion their vulnerable backline will ensure Leicester get something from this encounter. A 3-1 Spurs win does feel likely, with Son Heung-min possibly finding the net. (talkSPORT)
