Southampton vs Tottenham Preview

Improved performance on the field have seen Southampton climb out of relegation pit and with only four points off safety, Southampton will want a win here. The saints have emerged victorious in 4 of their last 6 games and if they beat Spurs, it will be their longest run this year.

Interestingly, for Ralph Hasenhuth side, they perform better on the road than in front of their fans. Only West Ham have won fewer games in front of their home fans and disquiet is slowly creeping in the Saints camp.

Inside this season, Southampton have suffered the worst defeat in the 9-0 humbling by Leicester, a game which was played at home. The south-east English side also has the worst defense in the league and keeping Tottenham away will likely be difficult. The home side can however build up on the recent performances including a 2-0 win at Chelsea to come up with a less likely win here.

Mourinho’s Tottenhum walk into St. Mary’s with a disjointed defense which has been a major headache for the London Club. Spurs have kept only one clean sheet in a run of 10 matches across all competitions and lapses at the back-line have cost Mourinho’s side valuable points.

On the road, Tottenham has won only twice on the road after 10 games (W2 D4 L4), wins that have come under the reign of Portuguese tactician Jose Mourinho. The experienced tactician with a wealth of experience under his belt will relish this tactical clash and he might just come out on top.
