Can Tottenham Hotspur Finish in the Top 4 This Season?

The answer is clearly NO. As of 37th Matchday of the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur (Spurs) have only one game left. Even if they score a maximum of 3 points by winning their final match, their total points will only reach 62. However, this will not be enough to make the UEFA Champions League (UCL). Both Liverpool and Leicester City have already secured 66 points and are fighting for the 4th position. Therefore, only one of these teams can take the 4th position, and the other will settle for 5th place. Hence, the 5th position is also booked.

Premier League Season Outlook

Let's discuss the possible finishing positions for Tottenham Hotspur. Based on current standings, I think they are most likely to end the season in the 7th position. However, it's also possible for them to finish in the 6th, 7th, 8th, or 9th position.

To secure a 6th position finish, Tottenham Hotspur need to win their next match against Leicester City, which will be a tough challenge. Additionally, they need West Ham to lose in their match, and the goal difference will play a crucial role in determining the final rankings. Will this magic happen?

Injuries and Player Form

No, Tottenham Hotspur are not only missing their two injured first-choice strikers, but also their replacements are not in top form. This is further compounded by the fact that the players do not respond well to the current tactical approach and selection by their manager (The Special One).

As an Arsenal fan, I sincerely hope this does not happen. Spurs are fully capable of finishing in the top 4 if they avoid any further self-destruction. However, with Manchester City being banned from UCL for two years, their path to UCL could become more challenging.

Final Analysis and Prospect

I do not believe Tottenham Hotspur can finish in the top 4. The first three positions are already occupied, and there is little chance of change with only under 10 matches left in the season. The fight for the 4th position is intense, with Chelsea leading the pack, and Manchester United also in the running.

Let's focus on potential solutions. If Dele Alli (Dele Alli) steps up his game, he has had a couple of bad matches in recent ones. With Harry Kane and Son injured, he needs to lead the squad by example. Consistent performances in one or two crucial matches can build momentum. If they can achieve this, I am confident Tottenham Hotspur will finish 4th in the table and push Chelsea down to 5th place.
