Crystal Palace 0-1 Spurs : 3 observations from the game

#1 Battle for the top four is on

Spurs are keeping themselves in the race

Tottenham Hotspur came into the game knowing that a win would take them level in points temporarily with Chelsea and Liverpool in second place. Mauricio Pochettino's side has now won six of their last seven games in the Premier League and keeping themselves in touch with the top four places.

With Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United playing tomorrow, Spurs could not afford to drop any points as the battle at the top is very close and it could go down to the very end to decide the Champions League qualification.

Despite the win, Pochettino must be worried about his side's performances this season. Spurs are winning games by a close margin and had to dig deep till the final whistle to get all three points from their games. Harry Kane has still not reached the level he did in the previous campaigns, and the midfield hasn't created that many chances either.
