Historically speaking, we can expect goals, goals and more goals as we count towards the big start against Leicester City in the Premier League tonight (8:00 p. m. United Kingdom).
In fact, statistics tell us that this is the most scored in terms of consistent goals with a match in Premier League history. . .
There have been 128 goals in 34 meetings between Premier League teams, with an average of 3. 8 goals per game, the highest for teams that have played at least 30 times in the competition. In fact, in the last five PL games there have been 28 goals (Leicester 11, Spurs 17), for a total of 5. 6 goals per game!
You can see where those numbers come from when you look at some of the notable matches between the groups in recent years – just think about the 6-1 win at KP in 2016, the 5-4 win during our time at Wembley and the last time he faced the Foxes in N17: a stunning 6-2 draw when Heung-Min Son came off the bench to score a second-half hat-trick.
Here are the celebrations of more than 6 goals between the teams. . . 22/02/2004 – Spurs 4-4 Leicester 21/03/2015 – Leicester 3-4 Spurs 18/03/2016 – Leicester 1-6 Spurs 13/05/2018 – Spurs 5-4 Leicester23/05/2021 – Leicester 2-4 Spurs17/09/2023 – Spurs 6-2 Leicester
– We have won 8 of the last 11 Premier League matches – There have been no draws in the last thirteen Premier League matches since the 1-1 score at White Hart Lane in October 2016 – None in the last 96 overall matches the competitions finished 0-0 since the draw in the old Second Division in March 1948. New signing Dominic Solanke, the most effective urgent player in the Premier League last season, put pressure on the warring sides at most a hundred times more than his closest rival (Martin Odegaard in 1147). – 31 wins equaled Leicester’s highest overall productivity when they got the league name last season – In terms of form, in terms of league action, Leicester’s form fell as they got closer to the name – after being 12 points ahead at half-time. -February ratings place them in 14th place in mid-February. Our Academy graduate Harry Winks is about to face us for the first time after joining Leicester last summer; he started with forty-five against 46 in the Foxes’ win last season.
