Tottenham Hotspur vs Nottingham Forest
Forest, meanwhile, having been flying high in the Champions League places for much of the season, but after a run of three wins from their last eight, they’ve dropped out of the Premier League’s top five on goal difference. Nuno Espirito Santo’s side can climb back up to third with a victory here, but have been on the end of losses to Aston Villa and Everton in their last two games.
Tottenham Hotspur vs Nottingham Forest
Spurs languish a lowly 16th in the table as their season to forget comes to a close, and head into this game having won just once in their last six against already-relegated Southampton. Ange Postecoglou’s side may have reached the Europa League quarter-finals by beating Eintracht Frankfurt in midweek, but the continent is their last hope of salvaging a woeful campaign.
