Saints have only beaten Spurs once in their last 13 attempts in the Premier League – a 2-1 victory at White Hart Lane in May 2016.Out of those 13 meetings, Tottenham have only failed to win on three occasions.A disappointing run of results has seen Spurs fall out of the title race and into a battle for the top four, however they regained some momentum in midweek with an impressive 1-0 victory at Borussia Dortmund, sending them through to the Champions League quarter-finals.

Pochettino will hope to set things right domestically by continuing his remarkable record against his former employers.But the Argentine will have to watch from the stands after he was given a two-game touchline ban for angrily confronting Mike Dean after the 2-1 defeat to Burnley. “I am in shock. I still think it’s unfair. I can do nothing,” he said.“I feel a bit sad with the punishment. I need to wait and see what they put on the letter and the reason to ban me with two games. That is unbelievable, no?”

Stadium delays have left supporters weary but results are keeping them chipper.
