Tottenham face a second tough trip under the lights in a matter of days when the club face Southampton this evening.
Spurs stretched their winless run to five games across all competitions following a 1-1 draw away at Rangers on Thursday.
Former Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou failed to secure the bragging rights upon his return to Scotland against his old rivals.
The Australian is now under mounting pressure to reverse Tottenham’s poor form with a quick turnaround between games.
The north Londoners travel to Premier League’s bottom club Southampton on Sunday but at a very unusual time.
Both teams won’t relish the disruption to their plans due to their rare start time following the latest top-flight schedule change.
Southampton vs Tottenham: Kick-off time
Kick-off at St Mary’s on Sunday, December 15, is at 7pm.
It is one of two Premier League fixtures getting underway in the unique late weekend slot alongside Chelsea against Brentford.
Originally, this game was scheduled for 3pm on Saturday, however, it was pushed back over 24 hours after being picked for TV broadcast.
TNT Sports, who screened Tottenham’s draw with Rangers, also picked the club’s next match against Southampton in October.
Usually, the Premier League’s secondary broadcaster uses the 12:30pm slot on Saturday mornings to show their one top-flight match every weekend gameweek.
Tottenham’s Europa League exploits prevent them from being involved until Sunday at the earliest and TNT then had to factor in a suitable time for coverage.
