3. Kane scores hat-trick against Bournemouth

Tottenham faced terrible disappointment on Wednesday night, when they crashed out of the Champions League to Juventus. Spurs were winning the tie with just 25 minutes to play, but the Italian side showed their experience and came out on top.

This disappointment will certainly take some time to get over and a win over Bournemouth on Sunday could help a little bit. Now Tottenham’s main focus is securing a place in next year’s Champions League by finishing in the top four.

Bournemouth are six points clear of the relegation zone, but they’ve not looked too convincing this season. The Cherries are normally competitive at the Vitality Stadium no matter who the opposition is but Tottenham could blow them away on Sunday.

Playing against a team that’s suffered a hard defeat is extremely difficult because they want immediate reprieve. Players like Harry Kane and Dele Alli will be desperate to get back to winning ways, especially Kane, who was denied by the post late on against Juventus.

With this in mind, the Premier League’s top scorer is going to add some more goals to his tally — three to be precise. The England forward will net a hat-trick and put pressure on Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe.
