After a long midweek trip to Greece in the Champions League, Tottenham are on the road once more this weekend in the Premier League when they visit Leicester City.
These two sides have made identical starts to their domestic campaigns having both picked up eight points following two wins, two draws and one defeat in their opening five matches.
Latest odds
The Foxes have only lost once at home since February, winning five and drawing two of their last eight games. Sportsbet offer a home win at 2.80 with the draw at 3.40 and three points for Spurs at 2.40.
Leciester vs Tottenham Team News
Spurs currently have midfielders Giovanni Lo Celso and Ryan Sessegnon out injured while full-back Juan Foyth is also missing. Danny Rose and Serge Aurier were left out of the midweek matchday squad so are likely to feature from the start against the Foxes. For Leicester, Matty James remains sidelined with an achilles problem.
Leicester vs Tottenham Preview
Tottenham blew a two goal lead at Olympiakos in midweek to draw 2-2 and the north Londoners' away form in general has been concerning for Mauricio Pochettino this year. Since January they have failed to win a single Premier League game on the road, losing six and drawing two of their last eight matches. Those two draws have come this season at Old Trafford and the Emirates with both matches ending in 2-2 scorelines. Spurs have conceded two goals in six of their last eight away games while Leicester have scored over 1.5 goals in five of their last eight home games.
Tips and predictions
The hosts therefore can contribute to a high scoring game and over 2.5 goals is offered at the healthy looking price of 1.84 with this selection paying out in seven of Spurs' ten away league games in 2019. This bet has also paid out comfortably in four of the last five meetings between these two sides and looks to have a great chance of doing so once more this weekend.
