Spurs are seeking to arrest a poor run of results under Ange Postecoglou against the rock-bottom Saints

It’s a meeting between two out-of-form teams as Tottenham travel to Southampton in the Premier League this weekend.

Ange Postecoglou’s side have won just once in their last eight games across all competitions - though that solitary victory did come at the home of the reigning champions Manchester City - after a 1-1 draw against Rangers in the Europa League on Thursday night.

That result did stop Spurs from losing a third game on the bounce but back-to-back defeats in the Premier League at the hands of Bournemouth and Chelsea has seem them slip down to 11th in the table.

They ought to fancy their chances of returning to winning ways against the division’s bottom side, though their shock home loss to Ipswich last month is a stark reminder that nothing is guaranteed in this league.

Southampton are struggling badly at the moment, losing four of their last five games and conceding five in their last home clash with Chelsea. Russell Martin’s Saints are eight points adrift of safety with only one win from 15 league matches since earning promotion straight back to the top-flight.

Southampton vs Tottenham team news

Southampton boss Martin has revealed that Jan Bednarek and Paul Onuachu are both available ahead of Sunday's clash with Tottenham. Adam Lallana will also be back in contention but the game comes too soon for ex-Arsenal goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale to make his return, though Alex McCarthy is fit.

Gavin Bazunu, Ross Stewart, Will Smallbone and Juan Larios are all still out, while defender Jack Stephens is serving a four-game ban for his second red card of the season received for pulling Marc Cucurella’s hair in the thumping home defeat by Chelsea.

Injury-plagued Spurs will also be without a host of players on Sunday night. Yves Bissouma and Rodrigo Bentancur are suspended, while Micky van de Ven, Cristian Romero, Ben Davies, Wilson Odobert, Richarlison and goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario are all injured.

Southampton vs Tottenham prediction

In fairness to the Saints, their performance in the recent home game against Liverpool was proof that they can spring a surprise on any given day. But too often this season they’ve given away cheap goals and lessons don’t seem to be taken on board.

This is arguably the perfect fixture for Spurs to play themselves into some form ahead of the huge Carabao Cup quarter-final meeting with Manchester United next week, as there’s a good chance to fill their boots.

Tottenham to win, 4-1.
