Can Spurs Finish in the Top 4?

The answer is clearly NO. With only one match left in the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur (Spurs) can at best get 62 points. However, this won't be enough to make it to the UEFA Champions League (UCL) as Liverpool and Leicester City already have 66 points and are vying for the 4th position.

The Formula for 5th Place

Spurs need to score 3 points in their final match against Leicester to reach 62 points. But that won't secure a UCL position, as Liverpool and Leicester City are already ahead. With only one of them guaranteeing the 4th spot and the other the 5th, it's a certainty that Spurs are destined for 5th place this season.

Predictions for the Final Position

Considering the current standings, Spurs are likely to finish at 7th place. But they have a chance to secure 6th, 7th, 8th, or even 9th position this season. To secure a 6th place finish, they need to win their final match against Leicester, which will be tough, and hope West Ham loses. The goal difference will then determine their fate.

Season Overview and Key Players

Despite the challenges, the club has seen a significant turnaround in form since Pochettino left and new management took over. The recent signing of Toby Alderweireld has provided a boost to the defense, and hopefully, Jan Vertonghen will follow suit. These changes give fans reason to believe that Spurs can still fight for a top position.

The Final Race

The top 4 race is set to be a thrilling battle, and it's anyone's guess who will prevail. Currently, Spurs are slightly favored to grab the 4th spot, but the race will be between Tottenham and Chelsea until the end of the season. Both teams face challenges, as they have not managed to beat the top 6 (or 7 if Leicester is included) this season.

Conclusion

The final matchday will determine the fate of the top 4 spots. Tottenham and Chelsea will continue to fight until the very end, and it's a toss-up between these two bitter rivals. Fans and analysts alike are eagerly awaiting the final outcome.
