Tottenham Hotspur and Middlesbrough will face each other in the Premier League this weekend.

Former Liverpool striker Stan Collymore has predicted on Boylesports.com that Tottenham Hotspur will win against Middlesbrough at home this weekend.

Tottenham will take on Middlesbrough at White Hart Lane in the Premier League on Saturday evening.

Mauricio Pochettino’s comments could leave Kyle Walker-Peters disappointed

Collymore has backed the North London outfit to pick up all three points from the encounter courtesy of a 4-0 victory.

“I am starting to give up on Middlesbrough,” Collymore told Boylesports.com. “I like Aitor Karanka, I like the job that he is doing.

Mauricio Pochettino responds to speculation over Dele Alli future

“He has brought in some players like Rudy Gestede that may be a good plan, but they just don’t score enough goals.They are going to get leathered, I believe that, at Spurs. Spurs 4-0 Middlesbrough.”

Tottenham have a much better team than Middlesbrough do, and it is hard to see the North London club drop all three points on Saturday evening.

An early goal for Boro could create problems for Spurs, but would Aitor Karanka’s side be able to find the net at White Hart Lane?

Middlesbrough have scored only 19 goals in 23 Premier League appearances for Spurs so far this campaign.

However, Tottenham should not get complacent and should have respect for Boro. After all, Mauricio Pochettino’s side failed to win against Sunderland earlier in the week.

Spurs were held to a goalless draw by relegation candidates Sunderland away from home at the Stadium of Light in the Premier League on Tuesday evening.
