Yesterday’s loss against Manchester City was disappointing, but it means now is as good time as any to look towards the future. What does the future bring? March!
Tottenham Hotspur men’s squad
It feels pretty strange that there are only four matches this month. But perhaps none are more important than the two against AZ as Spurs resume Europa League competition. With only 11 games remaining in the Premier League, the Europa is becoming the likeliest mode of entry into the Champions League next year.
That’s still a long ways away. What’s most important is the first leg against AZ. Other than that there are two important PL fixtures against Fulham and Bournemouth that could help narrow the gap between Spurs and those in the European slots.
Tottenham Hotspur men’s schedule: at AZ (6 March; Europa League), Bournemouth (9 March), AZ (13 March; Europa), at Fulham (16 March)
Tottenham Hotspur women’s squad
It isn’t often the women’s squad has as many matches as the men in a month, but here we are. Up first is City. Not great. And Spurs are currently on a three-game winless streak. Also not great.
But there are three huge opportunities after that to pick up some points against Brighton, West Ham and Leicester. Tottenham are currently smack in the middle of the table. A win against fifth-placed Brighton would definitely help that.
Tottenham Hotspur women’s schedule: Man City (2 March), Brighton (16 March), at West Ham (23 March), at Leicester (30 March)
