Tonight, Tottenham play their first game since the departure of Jose Mourinho as they host Southampton in the Premier League.

The Portuguese was relieved of his duties on Monday, ending his 17-month stint with Spurs, who will now be guided to the end of the season by former club midfielder Ryan Mason, against a backdrop of criticism over the team’s involvement in the planned European Super League.

The most significant game in that period may just be the Carabao Cup final with Manchester City this Sunday, but with Spurs seventh in the top-flight table they must not look past tonight’s clash with the Saints.

Ralph Hasenhuttl’s team are in mixed form and suffered a heartbreaking FA Cup semi-final defeat by Leicester at the weekend, but they still have a lot to play for, with relegation unlikely but not entirely off the cards just yet.
