Sandro’s hard work for Tottenham Hotspur vs Sung-Yeung Ki’s passing for Swansea

Tottenham v Swansea          13:30

 

Spurs will be hurting after surrendering a goal lead to then lose 2-1 against Everton on their last outing. Clint Dempsey had previously put Spurs ahead.

 

Gylfi Sigurdsson may have mixed feelings if he breaks his duck in front of goal against his former club. After a free scoring season at Swansea he has 20 shots without scoring this season for Spurs, and is now one of four players tied at the top in the rankings for most efforts without a goal this season

 

Sandro covered his second highest amount of ground of the season against Everton with 6.62 miles to edge himself into the top 20 players for overall distance run this season, taking his tally to 90.52 miles

 

Sandro has also won the second highest number of tackles this season with 45 tackles won, 62.5% of all those he has attempted

 

Dempsey’s goal was his third from Spurs, having had 24 shots at goal with 62.5% on target. Last season Dempsey covered more ground than any other player in the Premier League, and he has now covered more ground than any other Spurs player in four of their last eight Premier League games, and in the top two six times

 

Swansea played out a thrilling seven goal game against fellow second seasoners Norwich, but sadly ended on the wrong end of the 4-3 scoreline

 

Michu took his tally for the season to 12 and Jonathan de Guzman added a third, but the Swans were unable to take a point from the game

 

Michu is now clear at the top of the Premier League goalscoring charts having netted 12 from 47 shots with a 57.4% on target rating

 

Angel Rangel was one of four players to break the 100 miles for the season barrier last weekend, taking his tally to 102.1 miles, the second highest total in the Premier League this season

 

Sung-Yeung Ki has been on great form since joining the Swans this summer, and last weekend completed more passes in the opposition half than any other player in the last round of games with 55

 

However, he will want to break his duck in front of goal soon as he is now one of four players tied on 20 shots at goal to register the most efforts without scoring this season
