Tottenham suffer a fourth consecutive Premier League defeat as Leicester complete a stunning comeback to climb out of the bottom three.
How much is Ange Postecoglou to blame for the atrocious form currently being suffered by Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League?
LONDON (Reuters) -Leicester City snapped a seven-match losing streak in the Premier League with a 2-1 victory at Tottenham Hotspur that continued the home side's abysmal form on Sunday. Tottenham have now managed only one win in 11 league games after goals by Jamie Vardy and Bilal El Khannouss early in the second half piled more pressure on manager Ange Postecoglou.
Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou came under more pressure Sunday after his underperforming team lost 2-1 at home to Leicester, which had previously lost its last seven Premier League games in a row.
Ange Postecoglou says Micky van de Ven could return for Tottenham in Thursday’s Europa League tie against Elfsborg, while James Maddison is expected to be sidelined for between two and three with a calf injury.
Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou insists he is unaffected by “running commentary” on his future and still believes his team can have a “special” season.
Spurs bid to get back to winning ways in the Premier League as they welcome struggling Leicester to north London. Ange Postecoglou’s side have lost seven of their last 10 league games and failure to beat a Leicester, who have lost seven on the bounce and are near-certainties for relegation, would pile more pressure on Postecoglou.
Leicester City should have their No 1 Mads Hermansen back from injury for the trip to Everton on Saturday. The Danish goalkeeper has been out with a groin injury that forced him off at half-time of the 4-0 defeat at Newcastle United on December 14.
Despite poor Premier League form, Tottenham have an opportunity to continue success in Europe as they welcome IF Elfsborg to London on Thursday.
Jamie Vardy grabbed the headlines after Leicester City stunned Tottenham Hotspur by beating them 2-1 on Sunday. Vardy taunted Tottenham by reminding their supporters that they have not won a Premier League title in their history.
