Tottenham Hotspur fans would have wanted a top-four position in the Premier League wrapped up by now, but it has not transpired that way.

Mauricio Pochettino’s men currently sit in fourth, but they are only two points above Chelsea with two games left to play.

Due to the club’s superior goal difference over the Blues (+9), it is likely that Tottenham will only require four points from matches against Newcastle United and Leicester City.

The North London outfit have the advantage of playing at home for both fixtures, but the pressure is on following last weekend’s shock defeat to relegation battlers West Bromwich Albion.

Tottenham, who have not won a trophy for a decade, kicked off their season against newly-promoted Newcastle at St James’ Park last August.

It was an ideal start to the campaign for Pochettino and his men as they secured a 2-0 victory, with Dele Alli and Ben Davies getting on the scoresheet.

The club’s social media team reminded the fans of their opening-day triumph over the Magpies, and the supporters are looking for a repeat, and the desperation is evident.
