Cape Town - Southampton manager Ronald Koeman believes the return of Mauricio Pochettino to St Mary's Stadium gives their clash against Tottenham an extra edge.
Pochettino left the Saints for Spurs after 16 months in charge on the south coast and helping the club to its highest ever points total in the Premier League.
The traveling Saints fans showed their displeasure for Pochettino at White Hart Lane in the reverse fixture earlier this season, but Koeman expects him to receive a more favourable reception at St Mary's.
