Tottenham will hope to take renewed confidence from their Europa League exploits when they host Nottingham Forest tonight.
The mood at Spurs has been transformed in recent days after a potentially pivotal 1-0 win away against Eintracht Frankfurt in Germany that sealed their progress into the semi-finals of Europe’s secondary club competition, where they will face reigning Norwegian champions Bodo/Glimt.
It was a victory that saved Tottenham’s season and eased the huge pressure on under-fire manager Ange Postecoglou, who will hope to take some of that new-found momentum into a wretched Premier League campaign that reached 17 defeats from 32 matches in dismal fashion at Wolves last weekend.
Expect changes from Spurs against a Forest team who are enjoying a tremendous season under former Tottenham head coach Nuno Espirito Santo and are in the thick of the race for Champions League qualification, though have suffered back-to-back defeats against Aston Villa and Everton and may be distracted by a looming FA Cup semi-final date with Manchester City at Wembley.
