Harry Kane

Proven to be one of the best finishers in the Premier League and with an impressive record against Saints, Kane will be the main Spurs threat on Saturday.

Seven goals and four assists have come for the England captain in nine appearances against Saints and they have often struggled to contain him in the past.

It will be vitally important that Kane is given little room in front of goal this afternoon and that the Saints defence don’t give him any gifts.
