89 mins GOAL Tottenham 4-3 Leicester - David Nugent
What a game! David Nugent capitalises on a defensive error and drills home from just outside the area. Is there time for a late equaliser? They are pushing now...
87 mins Sub - Dembele for Mason

84 mins GOAL Tottenham 4-2 Leicester
Game over and it is massively unfortunate for Leicester. Christian Eriksen gets through on goal and stabs a shot at Kasper Schmeichel. The ball hits the Leicester keeper and then rebounds off Jeff Schlupp and into the net.
77 mins Yellow card - Rose

63 mins GOAL Tottenham 3-2 Leicester - Harry Kane pen
Who would doubt him? Harry Kane strokes home the penalty with Kasper Schmeichel having dived the wrong way and another milestone for the young striker - a first Premier League hat-trick.
63 mins Penalty to Spurs - Nugent on Rose. Kane to take.
57 mins Sub - Paulinho for Townsend.

50 mins GOAL Tottenham 2-2 Leicester -
Wes Morgan

What a fightback by Leicester! From 2-0 down they are now level as Wes Morgan, left completely unmarked, powers in a header from a corner. Can the Foxes go on to get the win?
HT sub for Leicester - Wasilewski for Upson.
HALF TIME Tottenham 2-1 Leicester

37 mins GOAL Tottenham 2-1 Leicester - Jamie Vardy
Game back on! David Nugent races away down the right and sends in a fine cross to the feet of Jamie Vardy, who hits a first-time drive into the back of the net.
32 mins Yellow Card Nacer Chadli for simulation

12 mins GOAL Tottenham 2-0 Leicester - Harry Kane
Can anyone stop Harry Kane from scoring? He doubles Tottenham's advantage as Kyle Walker's cross falls to him inside the area and the striker's scuffed effort deflects off the chest of Robert Huth and loops into the net.
6 mins GOAL
Tottenham 1-0 Leicester - Harry Kane
Harry Kane, who else? The striker pokes in his 27th goal of the season from close range after Kasper Schmeichel pushes Eric Dier's flick to Kane's feet.
3 mins Substitution Michel Vorm replaces Hugo Lloris
1 min Delay in match because of an injury to Hugo Lloris.

I'm convinced Leicester are our new bogey team. Destroyed us (luckily, not result-wise) at the King Power Stadium and beat us in the FA Cup.

Leicester's last win - January 24...against Spurs.

Not expecting that this time around...

We're crap against sides with pace, even if they don't have the greatest quality. Has been a major contributing factor to why we've struggled so much in the Europa in the last three years against "inferior" sides, even in the group stages. Hardly will matter though for awhile after this game though, as they'll likely go back down after the season and lose some of their better players as a result.

Let's go ahead and see them out that door on Saturday, shall we?

A clean sheet would be nice, we've kept 2 in 2015 and both of those were in January.

Very much expecting a Spurs win. Anything but three points is a disaster, and the wheels will have completely fallen off our season.

A must win - lose and I think the door to CL will close shut completely (if it isn't already)

I would say Palace are but they actually out play us everytime home and away.

My recent memories are sadly of us getting turned over at home by far too many of these sides like Stoke, WBA, Wigan, Wolves and Newcastle etc.

This really has to stop. One of these bottom feeders has got to be on the receiving end of a damned good slap (a la the 9-1 Wigan match) and I don't see why Leicester shouldn't be the side in question. Wrong place, wrong time you guys...

I'm hoping for a big win and Kane getting a hat trick but we'll probably lose 0-1 from a counter attack.

Anything else than three points and our season is effectively over.

Last chance saloon and we must respond after a dire performance last week. There are no excuses, another free week and good teams always bounce back after disappointing performances.

No doubt we'll concede but I fancy us to have too much for them. 3-1 Spurs, and I'm tipping Eriksen to turn a bit of a corner tomorrow and run the game for us.

Have a feeling this will be a comfy 2-0 win, with Leicester only creating their chances in the final 10 mins.

Eriksen to score both our goals.
