MATCH PREVIEW:
Leicester are rock-bottom of the table having lost their last five matches in a very row and brought only a pair of points from the last obtainable thirty six. After what had been a promising start to the season they're starting to look doomed and while not a hope in hell. They may take hope from Sunderland who, last season, were 20th with ten points at Christmas and went on to survive.
Their visitors on Boxing Day are a Tottenham facet who are beginning to show signs of becoming the high intensity team Mauricio Pochettino desires them to be. They have won four of their last 6 league games and thrashed Newcastle 4-0 last week to make it into the Capital One Cup semi final. Confidence appearance to be building.
When Liverpool came to play here recently Leicester afforded them so much too much house and if they are doing that again Tottenham can punish them. Spurs struggle against deep defences however Nigel Pearson isn't the type of manager to line his team up like that, and his tactics may suit the visitors, who have won a ton of games recently by a 2-1 scoreline.
Expect Draw or Away Victory
