Arsenal needs a favor from Tottenham in the title race. Current form suggests it won't happen
Tottenham has stumbled to four straight losses, has just two clean sheets since the end of October and is on its worst run of results for 20 years
Four straight losses. The team’s worst run of results for 20 years. Two clean sheets since the end of October.
Those looking at Tottenham to provide a late twist in the Premier League title race are, given the current evidence, going to be disappointed.
Manchester City’s May 14 trip to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, for its next-to-last game of the season, appeared to many the last possible stumbling block for the champions in their bid to reel in Arsenal and secure an unprecedented fourth straight title.
After all, not only have Spurs plenty to play for — they're still just about fighting for Champions League qualification — but they haven’t lost, or even conceded a goal, against City in their four league meetings at Tottenham’s new stadium since it opened in 2019.
