Add as preferred source on Google<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\nWe take a look at the permutations in Tottenham Hotspur\u2019s quest to beat Premier League relegation after West Ham\u2019s 3-1 loss at Newcastle.<\/strong><\/p>\n All eyes were on St James\u2019 Park on Sunday to see if West Ham could turn the pressure up on Spurs in the battle for survival. However, the Magpies emerged 3-1 winners, which means that Tottenham are now in the driver\u2019s seat to stay up.<\/p>\n Roberto De Zerbi\u2019s men travel to Chelsea for a London derby tomorrow, knowing that they can seal their survival with a good result.<\/p>\n Spurs sit two points ahead of the Hammers, with a game in hand over their London rivals, and they also have a much superior goal difference, with West Ham at -22 and the Lilywhites at -9.<\/p>\n That means even if Tottenham get just one point from their remaining two matches and West Ham beat Leeds on the final day, there would have to be a 13-goal swing on goal difference for the North Londoners to go down.<\/p>\n While a win against either Chelsea or Everton would mathematically secure Tottenham\u2019s safety, even a draw in either game would be enough, unless something unbelievably extraordinary happens.<\/p>\n If Tottenham are to get beaten by both Chelsea and Everton, then West Ham would need to beat Leeds on the final day to stay up.<\/p>\n Anything other than a win on the final day of the season will spell curtains for Nuno Espirito Santo\u2019s men, who have now lost three in a row.<\/p>\n Tottenham have picked up back-to-back away wins in the Premier League, and Spurs fans will be hoping that their side can finish the job tomorrow in West London.<\/p>\n![\"Pedro](\"https:\/\/www.spurs-web.com\/static\/uploads\/1\/2026\/05\/pedro-porro-23232-1024x576.jpg\")
