Stoke City v Tottenham Hotspur: match preview Stoke City v Tottenham Hotspur: match preview
(about 2 hours later)
Despite taking seven points from their past three games, Tottenham are highly unlikely to have a chance of securing fourth place.

A win will also virtually guarantee their place in the top 10 to cap a fine first season for the Welshman.
