Tottenham are targeting an immediate return to winning ways when they host struggling Southampton at Wembley.
Mauricio Pochettino's side had won six successive matches in all competitions before being beaten 4-2 by fierce rivals Arsenal in Sunday's north London derby.
Southampton have failed to win any of their last eight matches and, after squandering a two-goal lead against Manchester United at St Mary's on Saturday evening, the club's hierarchy called time on Mark Hughes' reign as manager on Monday morning.
Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup:
Lloris; Aurier, Foyth, Alderweireld, Rose; Winks, Dier; Lucas, Alli, Son; Kane
Southampton possible starting lineup:
McCarthy; Stephens, Yoshida, Vestergaard; Valery, Hojbjerg, Davis, Soares; Armstrong, Gabbiadini; Austin

Tottenham vs Southampton Prediction
Tottenham may have suffered a hard-to-take defeat against rivals Arsenal in their most recent outing, meanwhile, but they have otherwise been in fine form over the past five weeks and should respond by taking all three points here.
