    It has been a while since Leicester last lost - a run of seven games since they were beaten at Arsenal on 22 October.

    Finishing in the top four and being in the Champions League in Spurs' first season in their new home will be even more important than getting out of their group this time.

    If Spurs do play a strong team, then I think they will win.

    Lawro's prediction: 0-2

    A bit further down we see Leicester in ninth, but a win tonight will take them ahead of Bournemouth and Everton and up to seventh.

    And that leaves Liverpool top of the league and the only side with an unbeaten record.

    Tottenham will jump over their London rivals Arsenal and Chelsea with a win.

    For some, change is unsettling. For Spurs, it's the lack of change which is impacting on what is becoming a strange season.

    First the lack of transfer activity, then being stuck at Wembley while their longed-for new stadium inches towards completion.

    In the meantime, Tottenham fans seem so fed up with the trip around the North Circular (who can blame them?), that their latest home attendance would have fitted comfortably inside the old White Hart Lane.

    Leicester will hope to benefit from Tottenham surely having one eye on their make-or-break trip to the Nou Camp on Tuesday.

    Claude Puel's side have put together a seven-game unbeaten run, during which only nine goals have been scored, for and against.

    Like Puel, it's understated, but really quite impressive.

    So Mauricio Pochettino very much has an eye on Tuesday's must-win Champions League tie away at Barcelona with that team he has selected. It is the first time this season that Kane starts a Premier League game on the bench.

  11. Team newspublished at 19:08 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2018

    Leicester City v Tottenham (19:45 GMT)

    England defender Harry Maguire, who has not played since 3 November, is on the bench for Leicester, who make four changes from the side that drew 1-1 at Fulham, with Jonny Evans, Demarai Gray, Ricardo Pereira and Vicente Iborra starting.

    Bad news for thousands of Fantasy Football fans as Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen both drop down to the bench for Tottenham. Kieran Trippier and Juan Foyth are not in the squad, while in come Serge Aurier, Ben Davies, Jan Vertonghen, Moussa Sissoko and Dele Alli.

    Hello and welcome along. It is a stretched day of Premier League football, and we're not done yet.

    One more game to go, and it should be a good one. Ninth-placed Leicester take on a Tottenham side that could end the day in third place.

  13. Can Spurs maintain their top-four push?published at 19:01 Greenwich Mean Time 8 December 2018

    Four wins in five Premier League games, Tottenham will be hoping to maintain their push for a top-four finish.

    It will be a tricky one though, as they are at Leicester tonight.
