Tottenham are now only six points off the top half of the Premier League table after recording a 4-1 win over Ipswich Town on Saturday. A double from Brennan Johnson and further strikes from Djed Spence and Dejan Kulusevski saw Ange Postecoglou's side make it three successive Premier League wins.
Tottenham have the chance to make it four on Wednesday evening when they take on Manchester City in N17. Looking quite far off a top-half finish a few weeks ago due to the big gap coupled with their poor form, Spurs appear to be building some real momentum now and that could possibly make all the difference come May.
As things stand, Brighton & Hove Albion and Fulham sit ninth and tenth respectively, with Tottenham six points adrift of the Cottagers having played 26 games. So who do their rivals in the league table play over the next five games? football.london takes a look below.
Tottenham
Wednesday, February 26 - Manchester City (H)
Sunday, March 9 - Bournemouth (H)
Sunday, March 16 - Fulham (A)
Wednesday, April 2 - Chelsea (A)
Saturday, April 5 - Southampton (H)
Tottenham have fared extremely well against the two Manchester clubs this season and they will be determined to make it six wins from six when they face Pep Guardiola's team on Wednesday. It is a very tricky game for Spurs but they will go into the match with some real confidence.
Bournemouth at home and Fulham away in March are tough games for the team, especially with the side playing against AZ Alkmaar in the Europa League prior to both fixtures. Tottenham never fare well at Chelsea but they will be expected to collect all three points against Southampton in early April.
Brighton & Hove Albion
Tuesday, February 25 - Bournemouth (H)
Saturday, March 8 - Fulham (H)
Saturday, March 15 - Manchester City (A)
Tuesday, April 1 - Aston Villa (H)
Saturday, April 5 - Crystal Palace (A)
Brighton have responded to their 7-0 drubbing at Nottingham Forest in the best way possible after recording three successive wins in all competitions. The Seagulls are only four points off fourth right now and four of their next fixtures come against fellow teams competing for a place in Europe.
As they could quite easily drop points coming up against teams such as Bournemouth, Fulham, Manchester City and Aston Villa, Spurs will hopefully be ready and waiting to pounce.
Fulham
Tuesday, February 25 - Wolves (A)
Saturday, March 8 - Brighton & Hove Albion (A)
Sunday, March 16 - Tottenham (H)
Tuesday, April 1 - Arsenal (A)
Saturday, April 5 - Liverpool (H)
Fulham are certainly in with a shout of a European place come the end of the season as they sit four points off Bournemouth in fifth as things stand. The Cottagers will need to put a consistent run together, though, if they are going to achieve that goal under Marco Silva.
The west London club do have some big games coming up in the calendar, including a four-game run where they take on Brighton, Tottenham, Arsenal and Liverpool.
Brentford
Wednesday, February 26 - Everton (H)
Saturday, March 8 - Aston Villa (H)
Saturday, March 15 - Bournemouth (A)
Wednesday, April 2 - Newcastle United (A)
Saturday, April 5 - Chelsea (H)
Brentford appear to have finally addressed their form on the road after beating West Ham and Leicester City away in their last two games. That will be put to the test in the next five matches with difficult games at Bournemouth and Newcastle United on the calendar.
They will also have to work very hard for the points at home with Everton, Aston Villa and Chelsea to come.
Crystal Palace
Tuesday, February 25 - Aston Villa (H)
Saturday, March 8 - Ipswich Town (H)
Wednesday, April 2 - Southampton (A)
Saturday, April 5 - Brighton & Hove Albion (H)
Saturday, April 12 - Manchester City (A)
Crystal Palace are currently on the same points as Tottenham and cannot be ruled out of a top-half finish. Finding some consistency is going to be key, though, if Oliver Glasner can guide the Eagles into the top ten come the final day of the season.
Palace will be expected to beat Ipswich Town and Southampton but the Aston Villa, Brighton and Manchester City games will be a challenge.
