Tottenham Hotspur vs. Southampton: TV channels, lineups, and how to watch Premier League online

Let’s go. Tottenham Hotspur are back at home Wembley Stadium today for a mid-week match against Southampton. The Saints are close to adrift in the Premier League — in the relegation zone, just one win, only nine points. They just sacked Mark Hughes and are currently led by caretaker manager Kelvin Davis, though look likely to appoint former RB Leipzig boss Ralph Hasenhuttl.

All that makes for what we hope is an easy win today for Spurs as they look to bounce back from a highly-charged loss to Arsenal in the North London Derby. That loss dropped Spurs behind the Gooners on goal differential, and down to fifth in the table. And that’s bad!

Spurs are still a bit dinged up and have had to carefully rotate for fitness purposes. That won’t change anytime soon with a weekend match at Leicester followed by the all-important Champions League match at the Nou Camp next Tuesday.

But first, don’t let the Saints go marching in.

COYS!
