Tottenham was back to their winning ways with a home win against Newcastle United in the Premier League. I think Tottenham will beat Nottingham Forest today, to keep the Premier League top-four hope alive.
Spurs would eagerly want to make it two consecutive victories after initially going five games without a win, their latest victory against Newcastle was convincing, but they now have to be consistent to win again and try to go on a winning run. It is not going to be an easy game to win, especially as Forest is at home, both Steve and Ange would be desperate for the win, but my prediction is that the game is going to end in a draw, i can't see a winner in this one.
This is why it's good for them to have done the right thing from the beginning, or should I say they should have maintained the good performance they started the season with. Tottenham did well when they started the season but suddenly they started dwindling in performance, they should have tried better to avert this time that they seem to be under pressure to win their next matches. They were able to win just a single match in the last six games, this is poor and they can't be trusted since the likes of West Ham have been beating them easily, any serious clubs might still draw their 3 points or 1 point from them. But I must give them the kudos for the better performance in their last match on Sunday against Newcastle, they dominated and were impressive in both the first and second half, and if not for the last goal of Joelinton, they would have had that perfect game against Newcastle.
Irrespective of that, we all know that Newcastle has now reduced in performance, so any serious club could have done that as well, but still, it's commendable. Now, about the expected match today, I believe that Tottenham will win, but they must play well for this to happen. If they underestimated Nottim Forest, they might pay dearly for it. If they play above average with both defence and attack intact, just like they played against Newcastle, then they have all the reasons to beat Nottim Forest helplessly. Let me say that Tottenham is a good team, this is even as Kane has left them, but one thing about them is that they get to underestimate their opponents in my opinion. Maybe this will still work against the opponent this time since the scoring sense of Nottim Forest is weak. But if the opponent uses the home advantage and is damn serious, then Tottenham might experience what they bargained for.
