Tottenham’s low confidence may have been boosted by their valiant second leg against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday night but nothing less than a win to ease their relegation fears will be demanded when fellow strugglers Nottingham Forest visit north London on Sunday lunchtime.
Igor Tudor saw Spurs win for the first time as interim head coach as they still bowed out of the Champions League on aggregate. However he will be hoping that they can take some momentum into a vital meeting against Forest, whom they are ahead of by a single point in the table and will have had 24 hours less rest following their Europa League trip to Midtjylland on Thursday evening.
