Andre Villas-Boa's Tottenham Hotspur has a prime opportunity to consolidate their third place standing when they take last place Queens Park Rangers on Saturday morning.

Tottenham who is currently in third place in the premier league and is coming off defeat of Conventry City in the FA Cup.

American superstar Clint Dempsey scored two goals - one in the 14th minute and the second in the 37th minute. The team's other superstar Gareth Bale scored the second goal of the game in the 33rd minute as Tottenham rolled to a decisive 3-0 win. The team is currently on a five game unbeaten streak in the premier league and has won four of five matches. In their last EPL matchup, they took down Reading. In that 3-1 win, AVB's squad got goals from Michael Dawson, Emmanuel Adebayor, and Dempsey.

The Queens Park Rangers stand in last place in the league and are coming off a draw with West Bromwich Albion. Kieron Courtey Dyer saved the team from a loss when he scored the team's only goal in injury time. It was Dyer's first top-flight goal since May 2007 and it keeps QPR's rejuvenation going following their midweek Barclays Premier League 1-0 victory against Chelsea. West Bromwich's goal came from Shane Long who scored late in the game in the 79th minute.

Prediction: Hotspur should win this easily, but QPR has proven difficult to beat. 2-1 Tottenham.
