After the very poor run of results, Fulham managed to win the last two home games and they will be looking to extend the good run against Tottenham. The Spurs continue to impress under Harry ‘Houdini’ Redknapp, having won four successive matches in all competitions. The players are in high spirits after the Cup win over Liverpool and they will try to get another three points and continue to climb the Premiership table.

This is the replay of the Premier League match played just ten days ago, when Tottenham snatched the win from Liverpool in the dying moments of the game. The Spurs are finally out of the relegation zone and they will be looking to continue the excellent run of results under Harry Redknapp, while Liverpool will be out to get revenge for the aforementioned defeat.

Manchester City slumped to second successive league defeat, having lost from Bolton last weekend. The hosts now have no choice but to try and beat Tottenham, thus start the climb up the Premiership table. Spurs have flourished under Harry Redknapp, having won three of the last four games. The players are now in high spirits and they will be very motivated to win this game.

Harry Redknapp did wonders in Tottenham during his short tenure at the club and the team will enter this match full of confidence after the win over Liverpool. After the defeat from Udinese, the Spurs need three points to return into the race for the place in the next round. Dinamo was lucky to beat NEC in the opening game and they will try to make another surprise, this time at White Hart Lane.

After the game against big rivals Arsenal, Tottenham will have another difficult match, as they will face leaders Liverpool. Spurs are encouraged with a great comeback in the North London derby and the fans will be hoping that it was the sign of things to come. Liverpool is very convincing lately, having won their last five league games and the Reds will be hoping to continue excellent run.

This is certainly the biggest game of the round, as fierce rivals Arsenal and Tottenham will battle for the precious points. Arsenal battled hard to earn all three points against West Ham and the win in this match could get them back in the title race. Tottenham’s first win of the season couldn’t have come in the better time and the atmosphere in the team will be considerably improved before the North London derby.

These two sides have been very poor this season and although it was expected that Bolton will be fighting for survival nobody could predict that Tottenham will have just two points after 8 rounds. Tottenham lost their third successive league match and they wil have a lot of problems escaping from the bottom of the standings, while Bolton also needs points in order to avoid dropping in the dangerous zone.

One of the derbies of the first qualifying round, will as every duel between English and Italian teams draw a lot of attention. Regardless of all Spurs’ setbacks that nailed them to Premiership bottom, Juande Ramos is the man who has already won UEFA with Sevilla and he is sort of a cup expert. Few years ago Udinese played in the Champions League and this is one of the most talented teams in the league and they deserve a place in the top part of the table, they are, actually in top five. They weren’t impressive in the last round, but they avoided defeat away in Lecce although they were two goals behind. Coach Marino couldn’t count on couple of players, and Udinese showed two faces, the first half was their worst of the season while in the end they could have even won. Chilean Sanchez who entered the pitch in the second half, was brilliant as he was tired from the long trip and World Cup qualifications.

Funny as it may sound, this is the derby of the bottom of the table, as both Stoke and Tottenham are in the relegation zone. The teams are in a really poor form and this game is the chance to get away from the bottom of the table. Stoke lost from Portsmouth in the last round, while Tottenham suffered another disappointing defeat, by losing to Hull City at White Hart Lane.

Tottenham is rock bottom and Hull is sixth. Is there something wrong with this sentence? Even though this would look stupid at the start of the season, this is just the state of things. Tottenham is still without a win in the Premier League, and the Spurs will try to end this terrible run when these two sides meet on Sunday. Hull is excellent at the moment, and they managed to beat Arsenal at the Emirates. We will have to wait and see if they will take advantage of Tottenham’s poor form and win the match.
