Tottenham will need to rediscover their attacking form if they are to get their Champions League qualification bid back on track at home to Leicester in the Premier League today.

Antonio Conte’s side failed to score in each of their previous Premier League fixtures and were without a shot on target in a home defeat to Brighton and goalless draw at Brentford last weekend.

A run of four consecutive wins, fuelled by the form of attacking players Harry Kane, Son Heung-min and Dejan Kulusevski, had put Spurs in pole position for the top four but it is now Arsenal who hold the advantage.

Tottenham can put the pressure on Arsenal ahead of their match at West Ham but must get back to winning ways themselves against Leicester, with a trip to Liverpool and the north London derby against the Gunners next up.

Here’s everything you need to know before the match this afternoon.

The match will kick-off at 2pm BST on Sunday 1 May at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
