The manager J. dos Santos Mourinho looks to inspire Tottenham Hotspur win against West Bromwich Albion

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Premier League. Thankfully the previous game, versus Chelsea, was also a home game here at Spurs Stadium. The away team is better rested.

Tottenham Hotspur form and stats

When playing at home in the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur have managed 4 wins, 3 draws and suffered 4 defeats from 11 games. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Spurs to get some points in this home game. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Spurs, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

Spurs haven't scored a league goal since they found the net 221 minutes ago. P. Hojbjerg scored that one.

The Spurs crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to Chelsea here at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in a Premier League match. Heartbreak before that as Spurs lost 0-1 at Brighton & Hove Albion's place.

There will be little rest for Spurs after this match as they are travelling to Everton for a FA Cup game in only three days.

Spurs are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 15 goals in 11 games. On the other hand, Spurs have conceded 13 goals.

West Bromwich Albion form and stats

West Bromwich Albion, who have the most conceded goals (52) in Premier League, have only collected 6 points from their away games in the Premier League, after 1-3-7 (11 played). WBA seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

WBA play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 1-2 to Sheffield United (placed 20th). Ahead of that game was the 2-2 draw at home against Fulham.

WBA have scored 11 goals on their travels this season, from 11 away games in the league. In the opposite end, WBA have conceded 21 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head
