Prediction: 2-0
Sheffield United
After sharing the spoils with Everton at Goodison Park, Tottenham will be aiming to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they take on Sheffield United in London. Spurs have been struggling to find their best form in the first half of the season, but given the fact that crucial attacker Harry Kane returns to the starting line-up against Sheffield Utd, home win should be considered.
Korea international Son is out of contention through suspension after breaking Andre Gomes’ leg. Still, Mauro Pochettino has a number of high-profile players to choose from, who are capable of breaking the deadlock. The Blades impressed in a 3-0 home win over Burnley, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry in Saturday’s football match against Tottenham. Spurs want this win more than the Blades, which is probably the main reason why we are tempted to put our money on Harry Kane and Co.

The left-footed defender spent one season at Mandemakers Stadion and he returned to Ajax for the 2007/2008 season.

The Blades finished the 2016/2017 League One campaign in top position in the standings, with the team collecting exactly 100 points in the process. Sheffield United last competed in the Premier League in the 2006/2007 season and they were more than unfortunate not to secure the top flight survival.
The Blades finished the season in 18th place in the process and it has to be noted that they were level on points with Wigan Athletic, who managed to avoid the relegation to the English second tier. Sheffield United welcome their rivals at Bramal Lane, the stadium which was opened on April 30, 1855. The current capacity of the venue is 32.702.
