Premier League
Wembley Stadium
So despite a bright start against Man Utd, it's another season without silverware. Disappointing.
Can the players lift themselves now and finish the campaign well or will heads go down?
We've got four games remaining to ensure Champions League football at the new stadium.
Three wins would guarantee that we finish above Chelsea and we've got three home games to play.
Will we start well with a win in this match, facing a side that's virtually safe?
Watford started the season well, as Hull's former manager Marco Silva replaced Walter Mazzarri in the summer.
Their early form was quite impressive, as they drew with Liverpool, beat Arsenal and stayed in the top half.
A blip coincided with an unwelcome approach for their coach from another Premier League club.
The board lost confidence and another managerial casualty departed from Vicarage Road in January.
Javi Gracia replaced Silva on the same day that his dismissal was announced.
The highly experienced Spanish midfielder had been out of work since a short stint at Rubin Kazan.
Despite his reputation as a thoughtful, loyal and dedicated coach, it seemed quite out of the blue.
He's had mixed results and the current board at Watford are not known for their patience.
He may see this game as an important step to take to keep his job into next season.
The game at the Lane last season saw a rare start from Vincent Janssen, as Kane recovered on the bench.
The visitors didn't start too badly, but soon faced attack after attack, as the woodwork kept the score level.
Son and Janssen both struck it before Dele Alli curled home a magnificent strike to take the lead.
Eric Dier added a second from a blocked Son shot, before the South Korean got one himself to make it 3-0.
The break didn't help our visitors, as Son added another just after it, finishing the scoring:

The match at Vicarage Road was a tough, battling performance, in contrast.
A fairly bright start was abruptly brought to an end, as Kabasele headed home unmarked from a corner.
Son restored parity and things remained level at the break, but thoughts of a win were soon stunted.
Davinson Sanchez was dismissed for a raised arm on Richarlison with nearly 40 minutes remaining.
The remaining ten men limited the hosts to potshots though, taking a decent point in the circumstances:

Harry Winks misses out again, as his rehabilitation continues. No news on Rose or Walker-Peters.
Tom Cleverly is absent for the visitors, while there are doubts about various others.
Kaboul, Hoban, Deulofeu, Prodl, Peyreyra and Deeney may all miss out.
Neither side has any suspensions.

Spurs: Lloris; Aurier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Davies; Sissoko, Wanyama; Moura, Eriksen Son; Kane.

How should Pochettino approach this one, given the result and performance against Man Utd?
Who deserves to keep their place and who needs a rest?
Should we continue rotating our fullbacks and is there a place for Alderweireld or Moura in the starting XI?
