Tottenham Hotspur vs Watford Preview

Tottenham Hotspur vs Watford

Competition – Barclays Premier League

Stadium – Wembley

Date: 30th April 2018

Kick-off time – 20:00 GMT

Tottenham have developed from a team struggling to get into the top four to a team that has become used to playing European football and fighting for other trophies.

However, this season is set to end trophy-less after they lost to Manchester United in the semifinal of the FA Cup last weekend.

They were knocked out of the Champions League by Juventus previously and their fans would now be looking forward to them wrapping up a top four spot.

In their last two league games, they dropped 5 points allowing Chelsea to close the gap with them and they now need to return to winning ways here to avoid any last minute struggles for the top four.

Watford come into this game with a very poor recent run of form.

The Hornets drew 0-0 against Crystal Palace in their last league game – a result which makes it six games without a win for them.

They still sit 12th in the league table and have a respectable 9 points cushion on the drop zone, but their stars need to switch back on or risk being sold in the summer.

Tottenham have six wins and one draw from their last seven meetings with Watford.
