Tottenham Hotspur vs Leicester City means one thing: the objectives. The last six meetings in the Premier League have produced 30 objectives on average of five consisting of the game, adding 6-2, 4-2 and 3-2 for us.
Now we meet again in the competition at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday (2pm UK).
Go back almost 110 years, and the goalscoring seeds were sown for this fixture.
The first assembly between those groups took position in the first FA Cup circular on 10 January 1914 when we pitted the Foxes against their former Leicester Fosse appearance. The result?A 5-5 draw! Then we won 2-0 rereading on the court before going out to Manchester City.
Since then, AIMS has occurred in abundance, especially in the Era of the Premier League, where 35 meetings between groups have the greatest objective for game of any game that has been played at least 30 times (3. 71).
All of those goals mean we’ve noticed some games between the groups – here are five of the Premier League’s most productive since 2014/15. . .
Harry Kane spent the second half of 2012/13 on loan at Leicester – and it’s fair to say he’s haunted them since. The striker has 16 goals in 15 appearances against the Foxes – many detailed below – and this belter at the Lane provided a couple of career landmarks for the then 21-year-old. First up, his first hat-trick in the Premier League – he now has eight – while his third goal that afternoon was the 50th of his career. We were quick out of the traps again as Kane put us 2-0 up, only for the Foxes to hit back to make it 2-2 at the start of the second half. Jeffrey Schlupp’s own goal and Kane’s third made it 4-2 before David Nugent’s late goal made for an uncomfortable last few minutes at 4-3, but we held on.
The penultimate game of a memorable crusade, undefeated in the house in our last season at White Hart Lane, with a general record problems in the Premier League, saw us return to the KP with the foxes like those reigning champions. However, Harry Kane, when the attacker scored the first and so far with only 4 purposes for us in a last prolific week that saw him scored the last purpose of a Spurs player on the road, Mark 4 opposed Leicester and Then to some other triplicate in our last 2016/17 Fit in Hull, 8 purposes in a week to win the Golden Boot. We lead 2-0 at the break, Heung-min is also in the target of his twentieth in the country And some from Sonny makes it an unforgettable night.
It is the selection of the group opposed to Leicester, and in reality one of the most productive games of the Era of the Premier League. Temporarily through Harry Kane, but when Kelechi Iheanacho got into 25 yards for 3-1 two minutes in the moment, we looked at Trouble. Eerk Lamela unleashed a very good return of 10 minutes, scoring twice and forcing a purpose of his own for 4-3, however, Leicester did not give up and Vardy did it 4-4 in 73 minutes. And Kane has become the first spur to score 30 purposes in a Premier League season. Then he took England to the World Cup semifinals . . .
Gareth Bale signed off in style with a late cameo in the latest goal fest between the teams in the final match of last season in May last year. Once again, there was plenty on the line – Leicester came into the game level on points with Liverpool and after a Champions League spot, but we also wanted European football, and to stay ahead of Arsenal, who were a point behind us and hosting Brighton. Jamie Vardy struck twice from the spot either side of Harry Kane’s volley as Foxes led 2-1 going into the final quarter of the match. Kasper Schmeichel then somehow diverted Heung-Min Son’s corner into his own net for 2-2 and, as Leicester pushed on, we picked them off with Bale, off the bench on 68 minutes, converting from Kane’s pass on 87 minutes before strolling through, hitting the post and then tapping in the rebound six minutes into added time. We finished seventh, Bale reached double-figures in the Premier League and Kane capped it all with a memorable, personal double – the Golden Boot and the Playmaker Award for most assists in 2020/21.
Six goals and a very good quarter of the moment for Heung-Min are given everyone in the house after another impressive assembly among the teams, this time at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium in September. We followed early after his Tielemans marked a penalty twice taken: Hugo Lloris stored the initial effort, but he tried outside his line through VAR, but responded well to lead 2-1 after two in Harry Kane and Eric and Eric and Eric and Eric and Eric. Dier section. We look just for James Maddison to climb just before part time. We arrived here for traps burns at the time, while Rodrigo Bentancur marked an important third less than a minute, winning the property before a clinical final for 3-2. From there it was Sonny’s show. The Korean left the bank here at 59 minutes and marked a hat -rick in 13. The first, a good appearance of burner with his right foot in the upper corner from 22 meters, the moment probably better, this time a logo of a Left storage brand effort at a similar distance. Then he was sent 4 minutes to end a memorable acute.
