Team News

Tottenham
Southampton
  • Tottenham sacked Jose Mourinho on Monday morning and have put 29-year-old Ryan Mason in charge for the remainder of the season.
  • Changes are expected by Mason given Tottenham face Manchester City in the League Cup final this coming weekend.
  • Harry Kane limped off at the end of Tottenham's 2-2 draw with Everton on Friday night and will be assessed, though with the Carabao Cup on Sunday, he may not be risked.
  • James Ward-Prowse, Danny Ings and Theo Walcott were all fit to start against Burnley last weekend.
  • Takumi Minamino wasn't deemed fit enough to start after his excursions with Japan during the international break but come into Ralph Hasenhuttl's thinking here.
  • Nathan Redmond and Danny Ings both scored and assisted against Burnley so there is no reason to drop either, meaning Che Adams will likely be benched again here.

Prediction

  • Tottenham sacked Jose Mourinho at the start of the week following a run of just one win from six matches. Tottenham are five points off the top four, though where they finish is potentially meaningless if the European Super League goes through.
  • Southampton will be down in the dumps after being knocked out of the FA Cup semi-finals to Leicester on Sunday. Nine points clear of the bottom three in the Premier League, Southampton should be safe from relegation but they could now just coast to the finish line with nothing left to play for.
  • Mourinho's sacking on the eve of this fixture certainly adds intrigue to this fixture, though it means little in the grand scheme of things in the league.

    To be fair Tottenham have just been relegated from the ESL after almost 24hrs unbroken run. This may be on their minds now...

    Half time. Maybe I'm being premature, but here's another of the Dirty Dozen clubs failing after the event.

    The Tottenham players may have one eye on Sunday whereas Southampton will have pick up themselves up from their FA Cup exit. Also it'll be interesting to see how the Tottenham players respond after José's departure. Will they play with more freedom and confidence or continue to look disorganised and stale ? Home advantage could be the difference. Tottenham 1-0 Southampton
