Sheffield United host Tottenham Hotspur in match-day 19 of the Premier League on Sunday 17th January, 2:00pm at Bramall Lane. The hosts currently sit in 20th place in the table having beaten Newcastle United 1-0 last time out, while the visitors are in 6th after their 1-1 draw against Fulham.
Winless in our last seven away games against this lot, it is difficult to imagine the levels of pandemonium that might be unleashed should Spurs fail this afternoon – but that remains an unhelpful stat. 70% of Spurs’s last 20 away league games ended with both teams scoring, they won 5, drew 4 and lost 5 of those games.
The ache in all our hearts is perhaps best summed up by the fact that no Premier League side has scored more first half goals this season. 19 in total. On 8 occasions, those goals came in the first 15-minutes!
All eyes on Harry Kane and Son Heung-min who have masterminded 43 of Spurs 81 shots on target this season.
