Leicester City can boast with the fact that out of the last 3
away games with Tottenham, they won one and drew two, and now many in
Leicester City think that the time has come to defeat them at
home. However, if coach, Puel players,' want positive outcome of this game they have to play much better than in the previous rounds in
which they won away Stoke and West Ham, and lost at home to leading
Manchester City.
Right that duel with the Citizens should be the best example what they expect from the Spurs, especially as Tottenham need points to return in the very top of the English Premiership. Last weekend the Foxes met the Hammers away and they showed good defence but were not good in attack, for example scorer of the only goal was midfielder Albrighton. Players who will miss this match are: injured stopper Huth and midfielder James, and suspended midfielder Silva.
The guests from London, Tottenham, merely drew at home with West Bromwich 1-1 last weekend, which together with defeat in the previous round by the city rival, Arsenal, pulled them down for the first time in this season to the 5th place in the English Premier League table. Tottenham still have just 02 points fewer than leading Chelsea and are by that still in the race for the very top but only under the condition to start winning, which was the case at the beginning of this season.
It seems that all those great results made in the UEFA Champions League in which Tottenham reached the round of 16 after just five rounds as the first team in the group and ahead of Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund have exerted its toll on their ability to compete in the English Premier League and now against Leicester City, they definitely must play much better if they want to win all the three points. Currently out of action are only injured, stopper Alderweireld and midfielder Wanyama.
