The under fire Ange Postecoglou can slow his sack race odds by getting back to winning ways at St Mary's.
19:00 Sunday
Spurs, without a win in five, head to St Mary’s Stadium to face Southampton as pressure continues to mount on Ange Postecoglou (6/1 in the latest sack race odds).
Southampton vs Tottenham Prediction
- Southampton's miserable season continued at Villa Park last weekend, as they succumbed to a 1-0 defeat without threatening their hosts whatsoever.
- The Saints are now without a win in five matches, with the gap to safety now as large as eight points after 15 games.
- Tottenham head to the south coast also without a victory in five games, following defeats to Bournemouth and Chelsea, as well as draws with the likes of Fulham, Roma and Rangers.
- The visitors occupy 11th place going into the weekend, with a three-point gap to 10th-placed Fulham.
- Despite their struggles of late, Spurs should really be claiming all three points here.
- A win would ease the pressure on Ange Postecoglou, who is rated likelier to be the next manager sacked than Southampton counterpart Russell Martin (8/1) going into this game.
