The race to finish in the Premier League’s top four continues as Tottenham were the latest side to slip up on Saturday as they went down 1-0 to West Ham United to suffer their first defeat at their new stadium.
England’s Michail Antonio also became the first visiting player to score at the new stadium, where players from Crystal Palace , Manchester City , Huddersfield and Brighton all failed to score at the new stadium.
The loss however served as a blow to Spurs Mauricio Pochettino ahead of his side’s Champions League semi-final against Ajax on Tuesday, as well as the challenge to get back in to the champions league next season.
Here’s how this odd top four race is piling up ahead of the final couple of weeks of the campaign.
