Harry Kane just can’t stop scoring goals. The Spurs’ goal-scoring machine bagged another hat-trick in Tottenham’s visit to Hull City of the last 38th round in The Premier League. The Spurs eventually recorded a smashing 7-1 victory at The KCOM Stadium.
The 23-year-old striker grabbed his first chance in the 11th minute and sent the ball into the net after a good shot with his left foot from outside the box. It took him only two minutes to double the score. Kieran Trippier provided the assist. 0-2! The Spurs didn’t stop putting Hull City under pressure and Dele Alli made the score 3-0 two minutes inside the stoppage time.
After the break, the hosts looked better on the pitch and logically Sam Clucas managed to score a goal for The Tigers. However, just 3 minutes later Victor Wanyama scored his 4th Premier League goal of the season after a good Eriksen’s cross from a free-kick. Then, Harry Kane recorded his hat-trick in the 72nd minute. The forward saw himself one-on-one with the keeper and had no problems to find the net.
The morale of the Hull City’s players dramatically dropped and Tottenham Hotspur scored two more goals until the end of the game. The Welsh defender Ben Davies scored his first of the season with a beautiful strike from outside the penalty area. The humiliation for Hull was full, as Toby Alderweireld also scored his first goal of the campaign in the 87th minute.
That was Tottenham’s 26th victory of the season in The Premiership. The Mauricio Pochettino’s players finished with 86 points, which is a record for them in The Premier League. The second place was absolutely deserved by them. They could even have fought better for the title, but Chelsea were also unstoppable.
In conclusion, we expect a strong new campaign from The Spurs, no matter they won’t be playing at White Hart Lane. They have a very good team with a lot of skillful players. So, they can make a request for the title in the next campaign.

- Comments Off on Arsenal vs. Sunderland | Premier League Preview
The Gunners have recently been in an incredible form. They have won 3 consecutive Premier League matches, which brought them back in the battle for The Top 4! Moreover, the Arsene Wenger’s players must keep their best form, because they will play against the new champions Chelsea in The FA Cup final game.
Arsenal won their last 3 league games against Manchester United (at home) and vs. Southampton and Stoke City away from The Emirates Stadium. They will host Sunderland in their next league match. The Black Cats are the worst team in the league, having only won 24 points in 36 matches. In addition, they have lost 13 of 17 visits this campaign. Logically, Sunderland have already relegated to The Championship.
The Gunners have won 7 of the last 10 games against Sunderland in all competitions. Furthermore, the last time The Black Cats won an away game against Arsenal was in 1983 – 34 years ago! However, Arsenal have only lost twice at home this season and they will hardly do it again against Sunderland.
Until the end of the season in The Premier League, the Arsene Wenger’s players will face Sunderland and Everton, as both the matches will be played at The Emirates Stadium and if The Gunners win 6 points they will surely find a place in the Top 4! And I think that they are capable of doing it!
In conclusion, you should consider betting on a handicap victory for Arsenal. The Gunners will surely score a lot of goals against The Black Cats. The other reasonable bet should be over 2.5 goals.
Possible Starting XI:
Arsenal: Petr Cech; Nacho Monreal, Laurent Koscielny, Shkodran Mustafi, Hector Bellerin, Rob Holding; Francis Coquelin, Mesut Ozil, Granit Xhaka, Alexis Sanchez; Olivier Giroud.
Sunderland: Jordan Pickford; John O’Shea, Billy Jones, Lamine Kone, Javier Manquillo; Darron Gibson, Sebastian Larsson, Didier Ndong, Fabio Borini; Jermain Defoe, Victor Anichebe.

The Citizens will play Crystal Palace in a game of the Premier League at The Etihad Stadium. Manchester City need to win the 3 points if Pep Guardiola’s players want to take part in The Champions League next campaign. To continue with, Crystal Palace have almost secured their place in The Premier League for the next season. So, the pressure is off for The Eagles. However, Sam Allardyce will play his best players against The Citizens.
Manchester City are on a run of 12 consecutive home matches without a defeat in all competitions. On the other hand, The Eagles have only failed to score once in their last 6 Premier League games. They have won 4 of these matches! Two of these victories were against Chelsea and Liverpool.
The Citizens have an advantage in the Head to Head battle between these two teams. The Pep Guardiola’s team has won 29 matches, while The Eagles have recorded 15 victories. There have been 12 draws. 16 of the 29 wins for Man City have been recorded at home. Palace have only won 5 away games.
Man City have recently been dominant against Crystal Palace. The Citizens have won 12 of the last 13 games between these two teams. This will be the third match of the season between The Citizens and The Eagles. Manchester City recorded 2 victories at Selhurst Park earlier this campaign – 1 in The Premier League and 1 in The FA Cup.
David Silva and John Stones are expected to return to the pitch against Crystal Palace. Sergio Aguero will also be included in the squad. The Argentine received a groin injury in the match against Middlesbrough, but he is now fit. Claudio Bravo will miss the match for The Citizens, so Caballero will be among the starting XI.
Sam Allardyce has a lot of problems with injured players, especially he feels the lack of his key defenders. Mamadou Sakho, James Tomkins and Scott Dann are sidelined. The other omission for Crystal Palace is Connor Wickham. Yohan Cabaye will probably be ready to play against Manchester City.
