Southampton v Tottenham: What has been said? Ralph Hasenhuttl insists Danny Ings has ‘zero interest’ in leaving Southampton and says rumours he could join Tottenham are ‘absolutely nonsense’. Spurs have reportedly made an enquiry for Ings, who was recently recalled by England after hitting 25 goals for Saints last term. Ahead of meeting Jose Mourinho’s men, Hasenhuttl said: “The only thing I want to say for these rumours is that there’s absolutely zero interest from Danny to go anywhere. “He is 100 per cent happy to be here and, for us, it’s 100 per cent not discussable that we (allow to) leave one of the best strikers in Europe. “Any rumours about that are absolutely nonsense and hopefully this is the last time we speak about this.” Hasenhuttl added: “To be an alternative for another club or being here, the most important striker in our team – one of our own if you want – then you know how much he likes to be here. “He loves what we do here, he loves to play for us and the team loves to play with him.” GETTY Southampton star Danny Ings is being heavily linked with Tottenham Southampton v Tottenham: Match stats and facts Southampton have won both of their last two home league games against Tottenham; they had won none of their previous six such matches against Spurs at St. Mary’s before this (D2 L4). Tottenham have lost two of their last three Premier League meetings with Southampton (W1), as many as their previous 15 before this (W11 D2). Spurs last lost back-to-back league games against Saints back in March 2004 (three in a row). Against no other current Premier League side are Spurs on a longer wait for a clean sheet than they are versus Southampton, failing to keep a shutout in any of their last nine meetings with Saints (also nine v Liverpool). Southampton have won their first home game in just one of their 21 Premier League campaigns (D10 L10), with that victory coming against Blackburn in their relegation season of 2004-05 (3-2). Tottenham haven’t started a Premier League campaign with back-to-back defeats since 2011-12. However, Spurs are unbeaten in their first away game in each of their last four Premier League seasons (W2 D2). Southampton have won each of their last four Premier League games played on a Sunday, as many as they managed across their previous 23 such games (D8 L11). Meanwhile, Tottenham have lost more Premier League games on Sunday than any other side, with last week’s loss against Everton their 88th such defeat. Southampton averaged 71% possession in their MD1 defeat at Crystal Palace, the highest of any Premier League team across the opening weekend. It’s the second consecutive Premier League game that Saints have averaged over 70% possession, having done so in just two of their last 251 games in the competition. Danny Ings has scored in both of his Premier League appearances for Southampton against Tottenham – only against Norwich City (3) has he scored in more consecutive appearances in the competition. Tottenham’s Dele Alli has been involved in more Premier League goals against Southampton than he has any other side in the competition (9 – 5 goals, 4 assists). Harry Kane has scored nine goals in his last nine league appearances against Southampton; the Tottenham striker only has more Premier League goals against Leicester (15) and Arsenal (10).,
