Watford travel to take on Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Hornets will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The last time the two teams met at Tottenham H. was back in December 1999, over five years ago, as they swept to an impressive 4 - 0 win in a Premiership match.
