Tottenham 2025/26 Premier League run-in fixtures, schedule
Tottenham have a difficult finish to the Premier League season. While they don’t face any clubs in the top five of the standings, they still have a few tricky fixtures to navigate.
The run-in began on April 12 with a road trip to 11th-place Sunderland, who had won two of their previous three and generally impressed throughout the campaign. It was no great surprise to see the Black Cats claim a 1-0 victory.
Next up for Spurs, they welcome ninth-placed Brighton and Hove Albion to London, a team on a three-game winning streak on the road and only one league loss in seven.
After the calendar turns to May, they have a critical fixture against fellow relegation candidate Leeds, with a conclusion to the season that entails a trip to Stamford Bridge to face Chelsea and a final day at home against a strong and in-form Everton side.

Tottenham Premier League standings
West Ham’s 4-0 win over Wolves on April 10 saw Spurs drop into the relegation zone, having played one game less. Their defeat to Sunderland two days later meant they stayed in 18th place.
The gap is only two points, so things could change over a single matchday, but there are undeniable concerns from a Spurs perspective now.

What do Tottenham need to avoid relegation?
While it’s still just a bit early for scenarios and permutations, the simple fact is Tottenham must match or better the finish of at least one of West Ham, Nottingham Forest, and Leeds United.
The important one is West Ham, who are now above them in the standings. If Spurs can climb back above the Hammers and maintain that position, they should be in good shape. The fact they have a healthier goal difference could also prove important if they were to draw level with West Ham on points.
Burnley and Wolves in 19th and 20th respectively are too far back to realistically make a charge and overtake Tottenham.
If Tottenham can catch Forest or Leeds above them, that would be an even better avenue to safety, as it would give Spurs additional cushion between themselves and the drop.
