Of course, the same Antonio Conte who made Chelsea too tough a prospect for Spurs in 2017 is now the man tasked with taking the north London side to some form of glory. Leicester, meanwhile, are bottom of the Premier League, Brendan Rodgers’ position as manager is open for debate, the club is struggling to make money available for squad strengthening and at least one season in the Championship looks a likely proposition in the near future. They have the actual success. Spurs are now a massive club but have none of the silverware to show for it. Their head-to-head battle with Leicester City in the second half of the season looked perfectly set up for them to break their 55-year title duck at a time when many of the modern giants were having a below-par campaign. They somehow finished down in third in the end and would actually finish closer to the top the following year when Antonio Conte’s Chelsea kept everyone at arm’s length for three quarters of the term.

. It is unclear, however, whether Caglar Soyuncu will force his way back into Rodgers’s plans after missing the match against Tottenham.

Leicester will be all set to face Tottenham in this crucial premier league encounter. Welcome to the TOT vs LEI Dream11 team prediction.

We implore you to forage your team by your own accord with these facets helping spur your decision making. Harry Kane (9.0 Cr) has managed to make his mark in all of his recent appearances this season with 5 goals and 1 assist and this should keep him motivated to give his all in this match which makes him our prime choice for this encounter. Heung-Min Son (8.5 Cr) is not having the best of outing this season after a splendid run last year as he currently holds 1 assist and is yet to score his first goal of the season which could be the case for this contest. Dejan Kulusevski (8.0 Cr) looked in fine form at the initial stages of the season with a total of 1 goal and 2 assists in the limited game time which can allow him to continue with his fantastic attacking presence in this contest. Ryan Sessegnon (8.0 Cr) has managed to show amazing attacking contributions along with his ability to manage the defense that can allow him to provide decent contributions and earned him a crucial assist in the last match. Pierre Hojbjerg (9.0 Cr) is a fantastic playmaker for his team with 2 goals in the season so far which shows his ability to highlight his improving form in the recent matches which makes him our prime choice for this encounter.

Ryan Sessegnon is the beneficiary of that change, with Ivan Perisic switching to right wingback. 1 hr 40 mins from kickoff: After an impressive, unbeaten start to the Premier League season, things all went a bit 'Spursy' in midweek for Antonio Conte's men. 1 hr 20 mins from kickoff: Furrowing your brow at a sub-standard Champions League performance would probably feel like the height of decadence for Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers right now. Conte has indeed decided to drop Son Heung-min to the bench, with Dejan Kulusevski and Richarlison starting in attack alongside Harry Kane. Ndidi has been filling in at centre-back recently and Leicester are a weaker team without him in the engine room, as some fairly dismal results suggest. Maddison has Spurs scrambling with a fine crossfield ball and Sanchez slides in on Justin, somehow avoiding making contact until the wingback gets into the area. Lloris launches himself to his right and produces a superb save to deny Tielemans. That's exactly why Leicester are on the bottom of the table. Ndidi slides in to make a desperate block. 13th minute: Perisic cuts inside and engineers space to shoot.

This is the first Premier League match in London since her death. They lose it in a poor position, Kane can drive at the Foxes defence but Evans just about halts his progress. Then Leicester break forward, Justin on the left wing driving into the box and Sanchez dives in. For Leicester, it was a miserable transfer window and things haven’t been any better on the pitch. They remain unbeaten domestically though and can go level on points again with Manchester City going into the international break should they get the job against the Foxes.

The Croatian is naturally right-footed so this could be a system that creates more for Tottenham on both flanks. The big absence from the starting line-up is of course Son Heung-min. Antonio Conte had admitted that leaving Dejan Kulusevski on the bench was so tough that he had to have a conversation with his Tottenham man. 1-1 after just nine minutes.

Ben Davies is not part of the Tottenham squad for this evening's Premier League clash against Leicester City at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Speaking to the media ahead of this evening's game at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, [Conte](https://www.football.london/all-about/antonio-conte) opened up on Davies' injury. But I think after the international break, he will be available for us."

The thought of that happening since would have been laughed at as a stupid suggestion, such as been the Korean's brilliance and importance. "For sure it can happen that in some games he can't play from the start, like Harry (Kane) also. Leicester have not played since the 5-2 thrashing at Brighton and have made three changes from that humbling defeat. But Antonio Conte, who has the decision to make as to whether to start the Korean today, has backed one of his main men to come good. It was an away match at Bournemouth - back in the summer of 2020 - that Son Heung-min last started on the bench for Tottenham when fully fit. It's important we don't go into our shell and from that having the courage to create and we think we can do that against any team." We are talking about Sonny and he's a really important player for us. Davison Sanchez, Clement Lenglet, Ryan Sessegnon and Dejan Kulusevski are the ones to return. They play it short before Dejan Kulusevski's curls in a cross to the back post where it finds Kane who, having made a well-timed run, heads it in. But they cannot overly trouble the Tottenham defence and are simply being undone by their inability at the back when it comes to corners. Maddison decides to have a dig from distance and his shot is well blocked. There's plenty for the visitors to be optimistic about.

Lloris launches himself to his right and produces a superb save to deny Tielemans. 27th minute: Into the net again, but Sanchez is penalised for a foul on Ward. That's exactly why Leicester are on the bottom of the table. Kane trots back to have a word, presumably along the lines of asking what on earth is going on. Maddison flips one into the box and Daka gets to the header ahead of Sanchez. Some majestic play from the likes of Perisic and Maddison and the sort of defending that will leave Brendan Rodgers tearing his hair out and Antonio Conte...nevermind. Barnes and Daka shift a flowing Leciester attack in that Maddison looks poised to convert.

Tottenham Hotspur v Leicester City is go ... 1 min: Leicester get the ball rolling in the last of today's three Premier League games.

James Maddison gets to the ball in front of Dier, hooking the ball over the defender and into the back of the Spurs net. The Uruguayan advances, picks his spot and fires the ball home off the upright to leave Ndidi standing with his head in his hands. 44 min: Danny Ward has been unconvincing in the Leicester goal tonight and throughout the eartly stages of this season but he saves his team’s bacon on this occasion. Leicester took the lead through a retaken Youri Tielemans penalty, only to concede back to back goals from corners. 49 min: Showing little sympathy for his teammate in his hour of need, Jonny Evans picks out Ndidi, who is being tightly marked by Hojbjerg, with a hospital pass out of defence to the midfielder’s feet. He glides a little right before bending a shot from distance around Faes and past the despairing dive of Danny Ward. “I was really frustrated to be honest because of course[apart from not socring] I could have done much better than what I did in the last couple of games. “I like to shoot from outside the box - I’ve practiced that since I was a kid. I’m glad I’ve been able to help the team, that is really important and I can go to national duty with new energy. Even now after training, if I have time, I try to practice from that position and hitting the top corner. “In the first half, it seemed like the Leicester that we know and the Brendsan Rodgers side we know. James Maddison: “It’s tough to kind of debrief it in my head so soon after but obviously people will check the scoreline, see 6-2 and think Leicester got battered again but I don’t think that was the case,” he tells Sky Sports.

He’s played in behind the Leicester defence and drives the ball into the box. It’s the old combo of Harry Kane and Son Heung-min. It’s taken him 13 minutes to complete a second half hat-trick and get back into the goals. He takes this one on his right foot and belts it into the back of the net off goalkeeper Danny Ward. I’m glad I’ve been able to help the team, that is really important and I can go to national duty with renewed energy. Even now after training, if I have time, I try to practice from that position and hitting the top corner. There has been amazing support and I’ve always felt like I’ve disappointed my team-mates and fans with my performances.
