Here Comes The Son
Tottenham under Jose are better going forward than defensively - which is weird. Kane is a big loss, but they have a perfect understudy and he is fresh following suspension.
Few expect the Liverpool juggernaut to hit trouble at Tottenham Hotspur, but in the betting there’s still some value in backing Son Heung-Min to score anytime at best odds of 12/5 with Bet365.
It seems like every year there is talk of crisis when Harry Kane misses a few matches and yet, the narrative also tends to follow that the South Korean steps up admirably to lead the line.
It’s in these spells when Son has scored many of his goals in recent campaigns. Son grabbed 14 league goals in 2016-17, then 12 apiece in each of the following two seasons. That makes him a consistent threat to any defence.
The 27-year-old is also a big game player having dominated Manchester City in the Champions League knockout matches in 2019, to name just one example. The champions-elect beware.
