Five rounds before the end of the championship, the fight for European competitions is more than interesting in the Premier League. While it may sound unlikely, even Tottenham have a chance to reach the Champions League. They are separated by eight points from the place in the best European competition, and only one point separates them from the Europa League. But not everything depends only on them, the results of the main rivals must match in their favor. Since they do not participate in any other competition until the end of the season, they will have to give their best in the remaining matches. The schedule until the end is definitely in their favor, because they will play against teams that are, at least on paper, of lower quality than them. Today, they welcome Sheffield United and could not wish for a better rival to regain the necessary self-confidence after the defeat in the cup final against Man City.

I don't think it's necessary to spend too much words on the team that collected only 17 points in 33 games in the league and managed to score only 18 goals. The lack of motivation and quality is best reflected in their success in the last 5 away matches, they recorded all 5 defeats with only one goal scored.

With today's victory, Tottenham would get only five points from Chelsea, which is expected to play a semifinal match against Real, then duels in the championship against Manchester City and Arsenal, then two consecutive games against Leicester, one in the cup and the other in the championship. And all those matches will have to be played within 14 days. The big question is whether the players will be rested enough to play all those matches at the top level. In my opinion, this is where Tottenham's greatest hope lies. It is a team made up of fantastic individuals who certainly want to compete in the best European competition next season and will not be satisfied with participating in the newly formed Confederations Cup.

Interim coach Mason has no problems with injured players before this match and there is no reason not to perform the strongest team against Sheffield. I expect an extremely high-quality match from the hosts and a very certain victory with a minimum of three goals scored by them.
