    Spurs' survival chances being so high feels like a bit of a flaw in the Opta model - anyone who watches their games would tell you they're far more at risk than it suggests. I think they'll barely stay up, but lose tomorrow and it's going to get really tough.

    Boo hoo, let's blame the match officials. How about blaming the club's lack of ambition, their poor performances, their terrible choice of managers, and their supporters who boo their own players. Embarrassing. A holiday to the Championship may make them realise their failures.

    Tudor's done a variation of 'they can't attack, can't defend and can't score goals'. If you look at what he's said, he's basically saying his team is rubbish.

    He's doing that after two games. He's come in to replace Thomas Frank. Do we think Tottenham would be looking more likely to stay up under Frank or Tudor, who looks like a scorched-earth policy?

    They look vulnerable, fragile, like a team who have forgotten how to win games. I do have to query whether a new manager coming in and being that volatile and aggressively critical, what sort of impact is that going to be having on a team and a group already shell-shocked from what is happening this season?

    On recent evidence, West Ham are playing better than Tottenham, Leeds are. Nottingham Forest haven't been great but you still think they are better than Tottenham.

    Are they equipped to do what needs to be done in a relegation fight? To do what is necessary. You have to question the manager, the players and those above them making decisions. It is a mess.

    Spurs have filled their squad with overpaid and disinterested prima donnas, who stop caring as soon as the top four is out of reach. They play for their egos and bank accounts. Spurs lost far more than quality with Kane and Son - they lost passion, commitment and identity.

    Get Involved - Who will get relegated from the Premier League?published at 13:10 GMT

    Well, you've seen what Opta have had to say with their percentages but who do you think will get relegated from this year's Premier League?

    Are Wolves roaring a little too late, or could they pull off one of the greatest escapes of all time?

    And Tottenham, of course. Just a 4.45%likelihood of being relegated according to the supercomputer - but could they really go down?

    Those above that, on any other given year you would say are safe, but maybe not so this year. Could a Leeds, Crystal Palace or even Newcastle on current form be dragged in?

  7. Which teams top Opta's Supercomputer relegation predictions?published at 13:05 GMT

    Despite beating defending Premier League champions Liverpool last night, Opta's Supercomputer still believes the writing is well and truly on the wall for Rob Edwards' Wolves.

    In fact, it is pretty certain that the current bottom three of Wolves, Burnley and West Ham United are all but down.

    Nottingham Forest are only two points above the relegation zone but the Supercomputer appears to still have faith in them escaping relegation to the Championship. Perhaps Europa League form has helped their case?

    Tottenham have also escaped some heat because, despite only being four points above the dreaded drop, they only have a 4.45% chance of relegation.

    Tottenham Hotspur appear shorn of belief and good cheer. Listening to new boss Igor Tudor post-match, even he seems to have been dragged into a depression after just a couple of games.

    They are now squarely in a relegation dogfight, but unfortunately there doesn't appear to be enough fight in the group. When you are down there the bare minimum is to kick, bite and scratch for everything, be it a tackle or a lucky point, but that isn't happening enough yet.

    The others around them know what is needed. Forest have fight, West Ham have discovered a warrior spirit lately and even Burnley and Wolves are showing that spirit.

    Spurs have good players but without that willingness to get down and dirty, the unimaginable could now happen.

  9. 'There are big problems here' - What did Tudor say after Fulham defeat?published at 12:53 GMT

    Tottenham Hotspur boss Igor Tudor criticised his side following the 2-1 defeat by Fulham, suggesting there were 'big problems' with the team.

    "We were not good, lacked everything," he said.

    "Attacking and defending. Fulham were much better. There are problems here, big problems. We need to stay calm, believe in what we are doing in training, and get out, staying all together.

    "These are not things to speak outside, we speak in the dressing room. The problems are more complex [than attitude and commitment] second half was better, but the first half was not enough."

  10. What incidents sparked Tottenham's complaint?published at 12:47 GMT

    During Tottenham's 4-1 loss to Arsenal on 22 February, striker Randal Kolo Muani had a goal - which would have levelled the score at 2-2 - ruled out after the officials adjudged that he had pushed opposing defender Gabriel Magalhaes in the back just moments before scoring.

    It had been noted by Tottenham that referee Peter Bankes, who officiated the north London derby, said in last week's episode of the Match Officials Mic'd Up: "Once you see two hands in live play, it looks like a push - a clear push."

    With that in mind, Tottenham were left confused why Fulham winger Harry Wilson's opener against them in Saturday's 2-1 loss was allowed to stand. Raul Jimenez appeared to push Radu Dragusin in the build-up to Wilson's strike, as the pair jumped for an aerial challenge, but the goal stood because the contact did not meet the threshold for a foul.

    In relation to the Kolo Muani and Dragusin incidents, the video assistant referee (VAR) did not intervene and the on-field referee made both calls.

    Speaking about the Jimenez incident, interim head coach Igor Tudor said: "Of course, it's a foul. It's always a foul. It's an incredible mistake."

    It is understood Tottenham have provided PGMOL with further examples of where similar situations have occurred this season with differing outcomes.

  11. Why have Tottenham written to PGMOL?published at 12:42 GMT

    Yesterday we reported that Tottenham had written to PGMOL chief Howard Webb to officially raise their concerns around key refereeing decisions made against them in recent matches.

    BBC Sport understands the club is primarily focused on what they view as inconsistent decisions which have led to goals being allowed or disallowed as a result of contact inside the penalty area.

    The club feel they have been on the wrong end of a number of these calls so far this season, which hasn't helped their cause in the bottom half of the Premier League table.

  12. As it stands: Premier League tablepublished at 12:36 GMT

    Should results go against Tottenham Hotspur on Wednesday evening, Igor Tudor's side could finish the day as little as one point above the relegation zone going into Thursday night's game against Crystal Palace.

    As it stands, they sit 16th on 29 points with a goal difference of negative five after 28 games played.

    At this exact stage of the campaign in 2024-25, Spurs were 13th with 34 points and a goal difference of plus 14.

  13. Good afternoonpublished at 12:30 GMT

    Hello!

    Welcome along to today's live page.

    We've got a couple of important news conferences to bring your way this afternoon including that of Tottenham Hotspur boss Igor Tudor.

    Spurs find themselves in the precarious position of 16th in the Premier League, just four points above the drop zone - a gap that could be cut to one by the end of play today.

    We'll also be bringing you updates from Tottenham's midweek opponents Crystal Palace and their manager Oliver Glasner.

    Both news conferences get under way at around 13:30 BST so we'll bring you the top lines as and when we get them.
