Kane has scored 28 goals in the Premier League this season, three less than the 31 Mohamed Salah has notched for Liverpool.

Tottenham host Leicester in the final game of the campaign today, with Liverpool facing Brighton at Anfield.

Kane has a great goalscoring record against Leicester and scored a hat-trick against them at the end of last season at the King Power.

If Leicester don’t go at this properly, he can score threes and fours comfortably

Matt Le Tissier on Tottenham star Harry Kane

And Le Tissier reckons he has every chance of taking advantage of a Leicester side who do not have much to play for today.

“Of course he could,” Le Tissier said of Harry Kane.

“Yeah of course, it’s absolutely possible. You’ve seen him play, you’ve seen the consistency of him.

“He’s shown that when he gets chances, if Tottenham create enough chances for him, he’s such a great goalscorer. It is possible.

“It’s going to be hard because scoring a hat-trick in the Premier League is not an easy thing to do.

“A lot depends perhaps on what the attitude of the Leicester players is.

“If they come into it at anything less than 100 per cent, he’s more than capable of taking advantage of any slip-ups and any lapses in the way they’ve prepared for the game.

“If Leicester don’t go at this properly, he can score threes and fours comfortably.”
