Tottenham Hotspur continue their top-four pursuit on New Year's Day with a visit to Southampton.

Jose Mourinho's side have risen to sixth in the table since he took over and are now just five points off the Champions League places.

Southampton have reversed their fortunes in recent weeks, with Ralph Hasenhuttl's job under intense scrutiny after a poor start to the season.

Back-to-back wins against Aston Villa and Chelsea were followed by a draw against Crystal Palace last week which has seen the Saints go four points clear of the relegation zone.

Team news

Southampton are waiting on the fitness of Shane Long and Yan Valery who are both close to returning from injury. Danny Ings is expected to return to the starting line-up, despite being left out last week.

Jose Mourinho will have a number of decisions to make in midfield with Erik Lamela, Giovani Lo Celso, Tanguy Ndombele and Eric Dier all vying for positions as Moussa Sissoko and Harry Winks return from suspension. Hugo Lloris, Danny Rose and Ben Davies are all unavailable.
