Tottenham can climb up the table tomorrow

Tottenham have a big advantage this weekend as they play before any of their rivals.

Spurs take on Nottingham Forest tomorrow night. A win against the Reds would see Ange Postecoglou’s side leapfrog Manchester City to fourth place, and they would then be just three points behind Arsenal.

That would put some pressure on the other sides in the top-four race before they play this weekend, which is great news for Spurs.

It will be interesting to see how Postecoglou’s men will fare tomorrow. We’re sure Hoddle will be watching the game and hoping for a win.
