TOTTENHAM PREVIEW: HUDDERSFIELD (A)

Tottenham will look to continue their return to good form with a win away at Huddersfield this weekend at 3pm on Saturday.

Spurs went through a difficult patch, losing three consecutive games to Watford, Liverpool and Inter Milan but bounced back to beat Brighton 2-1 last weekend and progress to the next round of the Carabao Cup by beating Watford on penalties.

Huddersfield have had a very tough start to the season and sit bottom of the Premier League with just two points from six games.

If history is anything to go by, their record will not improve this weekend either – Harry Kane scored twice as Spurs trashed the Terriers 4-0 at the John Smith Stadium last season.

Tottenham's main man; Harry Kane.

TEAM NEWS:

Christian Eriksen is missing for the visitors as he is recovering from an abdominal injury that he sustained.

Serge Aurier is a doubt for Spurs with a muscle problem and Dele Alli could start his first Premier League match in four weeks, as he's fit and ready again.

Paulo Gazzaniga will start between the posts for Tottenham, with Hugo Lloris and Michel Vorm still injured.

POCHETTINO'S COMMENTS:

Mauricio Pochettino had his Argentine third choice goalkeeper Gazzaniga to thank on Wednesday, as he saved two penalties to see Spurs edge past Watford.

He said: "Now he is number one, because it's not Hugo [Lloris]. Of course we are so happy, that is why we signed him one year ago.

"It is so important to have goalkeepers that can play and perform the way Paulo does.

"It is so tough to be a keeper and wait for your opportunity, it is not like a player in different positions that you can play five minutes, 10 minutes, half an hour.

"The position is so specialist, it is so tough the time waiting for your opportunity."

BETTING ODDS:

Unsurprisingly, considering the teams' starts to the season - the away side are big favourites - with Bet 365 offering a Spurs win at 9/20.
