Tottenam Hotspurs vs Leicester City (FA Cup) January 10th 2016

White Hart Lane -- Ranieri already achieve his initial target, to earn 40 points and avoid relegation although he achieve it with 2 draw result. Leicester can't win in their 3 last matches and they even not score any goals in that matches.

The injury of Vardy is one of the factor of the Leicester's disappointing performance. Riyad Mahrez also not performed as well as if he play with Vardy.

In other side, Spurs are in a good run. They win 3 of their last 4 matches. Now, Ranieri will try to achieve another good result but in different competitions, FA Cup. But, looking at the trend of Spurs, it will be not easy.

Riyad Mahrez will almost certainly be rested, along with N’Golo Kanté, the season’s revelation in central midfield, which could allow Ranieri to give new signing Demarai Gray his debut, with on-loan Nathan Dyer on the other flank, and offer Gökhan Inler, the season’s forgotten man, a chance in central midfield.

Spurs 1.61
Draw 4.10
Leicester  5.45

Over 2.75 GOALS (1.97)
Under 2.75 GOALS (1.85)
