Premier League
3pm Saturday

Tottenham are unbeaten in 16 games since their 4-1 loss at Manchester City in December and their progress should continue with a comfortable victory over Huddersfield at Wembley.

Spurs made hard work of winning 1-0 at Crystal Palace last Sunday but their goal was rarely threatened.

With the help of returning defender Jan Vertonghen, they should pick up another victory and clean sheet against Huddersfield, who have failed to score in three of their last four Premier League away games.

Recommendation
Tottenham win to nil
1pt 8-11 general
