WITH Leicester only drawing with West Ham to move eight points clear at the top of the Premier League Spurs must take advantage and beat Stoke to close the gap.
On their day Stoke can beat anyone but in recent weeks haven't lived up to their billing and last time out crashed 4-1 to a much-weakened Liverpool side.
Spurs have been superb this season but should they be odds on to win at the Britannia on Monday night? Probably not but an away win looks the likely result. Boylesports go a biggest 20-23 on Spurs.
In Spurs' favour is the fact no visiting team has won more often (4) and Mauricio Pochettino's side have lost just one of their last 15 Premier League away matches – winning eight and drawing six.
Spurs have conceded just 13 Premier League goals away from home – fewer than anyone else – so all the stats are in their favour.
Like Jamie Vardy his England team-mate Harry Kane has been on fire so let's back Kane to score at 6-5 with McBookie to score and he is 4-1 at McBookie and Paddy Power to break the deadlock.
Spurs have netted 10 in five games so as well as winning I'm looking at Spurs to score 2+ at 10-11 with boylesports.

Too early mr F lol big point for Leicester there
8 points it was a draw?
weebanger, obviously it was a draw. Maybe the article was published too early.
Probably felt like a win with that late penalty .
Can’t disagree with your selections one bit Mr F.
I’m taking a different betting tack on the game and think the card markets offer good value.
Spurs will be fighting like dogs to keep the peessure up whilst Stoke can still grab a Euro place so passions and tempo should be high.
Add Shawcross’ return to the fray after missing a game to the following stats (Opta):
“There have been seven red cards in seven Premier League games between Spurs and Stoke at the Britannia Stadium, with only one of those matches not seeing a dismissal.
Mauricio Pochettino’s side will be looking to keep their title hopes alive against Stoke
Indeed, there is on average a red card every 1.9 games between these two sides – more frequent than any other Premier League fixture (minimum 10 meetings).”
Selection:
OVER 4.5 CARD POINTS…11/10
