The Saints have won thrice, drawn twice and lost one one of their last six league games. They now face a side that has two defeats and a run of four wins in their last six league games, which is also not a bad statistic for an opposition of Spurs' kind.
Mauricio Pochettino's men need to keep in touch with the top four, particularly their rivals Arsenal. And considering that the top four sides have all won their week 18 fixtures, the White Hart Lane outfit is expected to bag all the three points in this tie however difficult it may be.
