Is there no miracle for Tottenham in England?

On the 25th (Korea time), ESPN reported under the headline "Tottenham is in danger of relegation in the English Premier League (EPL). What statistics and data mean," stating, "Tottenham's fall into the relegation zone has forced fans to face a situation they could never have imagined. By any standard, Tottenham's season this year is the worst in the history of English football."

Although Tottenham is typically ranked among the top six each season, it is currently suffering its worst slump ever. With 7 wins, 10 draws, and 16 losses (31 points), the team remains in 18th place in the league. At this ranking, it would drop to the Championship (second division) next season. Under manager Ange Postecoglou last season, Tottenham finished 17th and barely survived in the top flight, but the situation is now even more serious. Both Thomas Frank and Igor Tudor, who managed Tottenham this season, were dismissed mid-season.

The gap with other teams is widening further. Nottingham Forest, also considered a relegation candidate alongside Tottenham, has surged ahead with 3 wins and 3 draws in its last six matches. Nottingham also secured a decisive 5-0 victory over Sunderland in today's match. Meanwhile, Tottenham and West Ham (8 wins, 9 draws, 16 losses, 33 points, 17th place) are engaged in a fight for survival. In the EPL, the three teams with the worst records (18th to 20th) are relegated.

Currently, it is true that Tottenham is at a disadvantage. The team's morale is low, and the situation is not good, as the last league victory was against Crystal Palace last December.

Even supercomputers have predicted Tottenham's relegation. ESPN explained, "Opta's supercomputer, which had offered positive forecasts in recent weeks, has now turned its back on Tottenham. It calculates the probability of relegation at 57.17%. The relegation probability for rival West Ham is 38.03%, Nottingham is 4.33%, and Leeds United is only 0.47%."

It further noted, "Tottenham has not recorded a single win in the league since 2026. They have collected only 6 points out of a possible 45. Tottenham's 15-game winless streak in the league is just one game short of the club's longest winless run in league history (16 games from December 1934 to the 16th, 1935). Since the inception of the EPL, the only teams to have a longer winless streak starting from the beginning of the new year than Tottenham (15 games) were Derby County (18 games) in the 2007-2008 season and Sunderland (17 games) in the 2002-2003 season. And both teams were relegated."

Tottenham remains completely stuck. On top of that, injuries are piling up. The media also reported, "This season, the only first-team player for Tottenham who has not missed a match due to injury is 'Mathys Tel'."

Tottenham faces Wolverhampton on the 25th. If they fail to secure a win in this match as well, the probability of survival in the EPL is expected to drop further. Upcoming opponents include Aston Villa, Leeds, Chelsea, and Everton. It is truly a daunting schedule. However, for Tottenham, there is nowhere left to retreat. Nevertheless, the media offered hope, stating, "Tottenham could gain points in matches against Wolverhampton, Leeds, and Everton. It appears that Tottenham will need 36 to 38 points to avoid relegation. Two wins and one draw could make it possible."
