Pre Match Leicester v Tottenham

[tedfoxxx]

I've got a kids' birthday party, and think I'll concentrate on that! What will be, will be.

Bet you can charge a fortune working as a clown on a Sunday.

Oh ****

 

[pork pie fox]

Oh ****

Is this said to every ref that we have allocated to us? Not aimed at you, para, just in general it feels like the reaction that's given to every appointment.

 

[Jeff]

Anthony Taylor has been our ref four times this season.
We've won three (WBA A, Wolves H, Liverpool H) and lost one (Man City H)

Unfortunately Stephanie Frappart can't referee all our games despite what some in here wish.

For some reason I misremembered him as the referee for when we got done by leeds. I'm sure he'll give Kane 3 penalties tomorrow either way.

As I said, it wasn’t aimed at you, more the fact that that seems to be a standard reply.

Head-to-head

• Leicester won the reverse fixture 2-0 in December and could complete a top-flight double over Spurs for the first time since 1998-99.
• Tottenham have scored in all but one of their past 24 away fixtures against Leicester in all competitions. The exception was a 3-0 Premier League defeat at Filbert Street in September 1997.
• Only one of the 101 league meetings has ended goalless - a second tier fixture at White Hart Lane in March 1948.

Leicester City

• The Foxes will qualify for next season's Champions League if they win and Chelsea or Liverpool slip up, or if they draw and either Liverpool lose or Chelsea lose by at least a three-goal margin.
• Leicester have only taken 20 points from their past 13 league matches (W6, D2, L5).
• They can record more than 20 top-flight victories in a season for only the fourth time, after 2015-16 (23), 1928-29 (21) and 1965-66 (21).
• Eight of Leicester's 11 Premier League defeats in 2020-21 have come at King Power Stadium. They haven't lost nine home games in a season since 2001-02.
• They haven't won their final Premier League match of a season in five attempts since beating QPR 5-1 at home in 2015.
• Kelechi Iheanacho has scored 16 goals in his past 19 appearances in all competitions.

Tottenham Hotspur

• Spurs have 59 points after 37 matches, equalling their final total for last season.
• They have suffered seven straight defeats in fixtures against teams currently above them in the table.
• Tottenham won their opening four Premier League away games this season but have only managed three more victories in their subsequent 14 attempts on the road.
• Harry Kane has scored 220 goals in 335 appearances for Spurs in all competitions. He's the club's second all-time top scorer behind Jimmy Greaves, who scored 266 goals.
• Kane is level with Mohamed Salah of Liverpool on an unsurpassed 22 Premier League goals this season. Both players are two-time winners of the Premier League Golden Boot.
• Kane has scored 14 goals in 11 Premier League appearances against Leicester.

Oh shit. Welcome to the KP Spurs, the home of Leicester City, the club that loves to right wrongs.

7-0 Leicester

 

[Payne74]

Whatever the outcome Sunday from 4pm is going to be a roller-coaster for a couple of hours.
Unless spurs score twice in the 1st 5 minutes..

 

[give_us_a_wave]

Kane injured in the warm-up.

Meanwhile at Villa Park...Grealish. Dive. Penalty. Goal. 1-0 win.

At the KP...3-0 City. Kasper scores.

Champions League.

Put as much of that as they'll let you into an acca in your bookie account of choice & try not to splurge the winnings on any suspect mid-life crisis type purchases.

 

[glyn]

We all know Kane is going to score at least two right? End of the season against his favourite opponent in what he would like to be his last game for Spurs.

I really don’t think it will be, for pretty much the reason you’ve said.

 

[give_us_a_wave]

We have to remember one thing & one thing only. More importantly the players have to remember it.

It's a really simple piece of data.

Spurs are ****ing shite.

Of course it won't matter much if the Scouse & Chelsea are both 3 up at half time.

But they're still shite.

 

[M17TT C]

Surely it's going to be 72-0??
