Preview Tottenham Hotspur Premier League, Dec 5, 2021

Preview Spurs bagged three points over the week in the 2-0 win over Brentford on home soil. An own goal from Sergi Canos (12’ O.G.) saw Spurs take the lead inside the first fifteen minutes. Tottenham continued to press for a second and were eventually rewarded in the second half. A well-executed counterattack left Sergio Reguilon in an ocean of space before teeing up Heung-min Son (65') for the winner. Today was a good win. Conte said in his post-match press conference after the game. To get three points is not easy against Brentford. I have seen a good team, well organised, very dangerous in set-pieces. He continued. But today we showed a great desire to get three points, to win. Conte said. Despite back-to-back victories, LLDWW, Spurs remain in 6th place, with 22 points after 7W, 1D, and 5L. On Sunday, Conte is expected to line up a 3—4—2—1 formation, with Harry Kane in attack. With underwhelming numbers in the Premier League, Harry Kane has only one goal in 12 Premier League appearances. Conte backed the England captain to return to goalscoring form in the not-too-distant future. First of all, I'm sure Harry is happy if we win and he doesn't score. Because Tottenham is the first thought for us and Harry, said Conte. I'm sure Harry is going to score many goals, Conte added ahead of Sunday’s game.

Preview Norwich City Premier League, Dec 5, 2021

Preview A resurging Norwich City earned a point in the 1-1 draw against Newcastle United earlier in the week at St. James' Park to remain unbeaten in four Premier League games: LWWDD. Goal-bound, Norwich’s Teemu Pukki raced away unchallenged, before a cynical foul from Ciaran Clark (R. 9’) saw Newcastle reduced to ten men inside the first ten minutes. With the tug on the shirt adjudged as a denial of a clear goal-scoring opportunity. Moments later, a VAR-assisted penalty saw Callum Wilson (61’ P.) hand the lead to Newcastle United. But a remarkable 79th-minute left-footed volley from Teemu Pukki saw the Canaries salvage a point on the road. However, the Canaries remain in 19th place on the Premier League table, having picked up 10 points from 2W, 4D, & 8L. Dean Smith could utilize the attacking 4—3—3 formation against Tottenham, leaving Pukki at the focal point of attack. Milot Rashica is sidelined with a groin injury, while Christoph Zimmermann and Mathias Normann are also on the list of absentees. Sam Byram continues to struggle with match fitness and remains a doubt for this fixture against Spurs.
