Dugout Discussion – Spurs vs West Brom

Gameweek 35’s swansong finds Tottenham Hotspur and West Bromwich Albion meet under lights at White Hart Lane. The former breezed past Manchester United and Stoke City in their past two matches, while the Baggies have lost four of their previous five fixtures.

Spurs’ rampaging attack ranks second for goals (11), total attempts (74), big chances (12) and shots on target (26) over their respective last four match-ups, highlighting their abundance of threat in the final third. Considering that Mauricio Pochettino’s side have chalked up a whopping 24 more shots on target than any team at home (136), the Baggies will do well to stop them scoring. On the other hand, Spurs will fancy their chances of earning a clean sheet having conceded just 13 big chances at the Lane all season.

Delving into the Baggies’ productivity away from The Hawthorns, they place second-bottom for goals (12) and sit last for attempts (140), shots inside the box (78) and shots on target (37). That being said, only three teams have recorded more clean sheets in road ties than West Brom (six), which suggests that Spurs could be in for a frustrating evening. Having posted four blank in five outings, Tony Pulis’ men are certain to bunker down in the capital.

    As great as it'd be to see Alli get a red and lose his BAPs. I can't complain since I had Sakho last week 😛

        I meant like how some trollers wanted Sakho's points rescinded. Didn't Alli punch a player? I missed the first half.

    That Alli to Kane chance in the first 7 minutes was a real killer.

    Much as I'd like Spurs to win - this result is not the worst for Kane (non-C) + Alli owners

      Yeah I'm thinking the same. I've half a mind to bring Antonio off my bench and let Alli rot there for the last 3 games.
