TOTTENHAM MATCH CENTRE:
Predicted XIs, Stats, Tactics & Survival Battle Analysis
Kick-off: Saturday 25 April, 15:00 BST
TV: NONE
Next up: Wolves vs Tottenham
The stakes have reached boiling point in N17 as we enter a season-defining period for Tottenham Hotspur. Following elimination from the Champions League, all focus is now on staying in the Premier League at any cost necessary, with Igor Tudor now sacked and Roberto De Zerbi coming in.
Tottenham face a nerve-wracking run-in as they fight to avoid relegation, with every match carrying enormous stakes. A gut-wrenching 2-2 loss with Brighton made it 15 Premier League games without a win, leaving Spurs now in the relegation zone with just five games to go.
If it wasn’t beforehand, the clash with Wolves at Molineux on 25 April is now a must-win. Tottenham will have to do it without injured skipper Cristian Romero, who is unlikely to play again this season due to injury, joining Mohammed Kudus and a string of others on the sidelines.
