Tottenham Hotspur could inadvertently aid north London rivals Arsenal in the Premier League title race if they manage to secure a positive result against Manchester City on Tuesday night.
Following a four-game losing streak, Spurs returned to winning ways on Saturday, staging a comeback to defeat Burnley 2-1 to keep a firm grip on fifth place and relegate the visitors in the process.
City, meanwhile, demonstrated their characteristic ruthlessness by securing a commanding 4-0 victory over Fulham at Craven Cottage to maintain pressure on Mikel Arteta's Gunners.
