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

Happy New Year, everyone! Brew some strong coffee, take some ibuprofen, and put toothpicks in your eyes, because it’s Spursday!

Is there such a thing as too much Tottenham Hotspur football? Because it’s getting pretty close to that for me. This is Spurs’ fifth match in 12 days. It’s awesome, especially if Spurs win, but it’s starting to make my eyes roll back into my head.

Thankfully, Spurs get a whole THREE DAYS of rest after today’s match at Cardiff before they take the kids to Tranmere in the FA Cup. That’ll be fun. But first — the Bluebirds.

Tottenham didn’t have the best of matches against Cardiff in the first meeting at Wembley. Eric Dier scored in the 8th minute on a rainy, wet pitch. It was an ugly match, but Spurs came away with the victory. Today, they’re in Wales hoping to bounce back from a disappointing loss to Wolves. Serge Aurier may be back for this match, but we’ll have to see what kind of a lineup Pochettino throws out today.

COYS!
