Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino has warned Hugo Lloris to remain on his guard throughout this afternoon's match against Stoke City, in order to avoid being lobbed by Asmir Begovic.
The Potters keeper famously scored a goal inside just 13 seconds in November 2013 when he caught out Southampton's Artur Boruc with a hopeful punt upfield.
Pochettino has urged his players to beware the elements at the Britannia Stadium, which he believes could help decide who comes out on top in the Premier League clash.
"Last season, in the warm-up there, it was windy - without the corners [at the stadium] it is unbelievable," ESPN quotes the 43-year-old former Saints boss as saying. "Stoke is maybe the windiest place I have ever played. It is not a case of changing your tactics, but of being careful because it is difficult to control the ball.
"Last season, with Southampton, we conceded in the first few seconds. Begovic got the ball, a big kick, the ball bounced in front of the keeper Boruc, flew over his head and we were 1-0 down. From then, it was very difficult. We got it back to 1-1, but it was hard to have to get back into the game because of such a stupid situation.
"I will tell Hugo to always be careful; when Begovic shoots, it is not a joke. You need to be clever and smart. Go out to warm-up and find out how the wind is blowing, what the conditions on the pitch are, because this is very important."
Begovic is expected to start on the bench later today, with Jack Butland preferred between the sticks.
