Tottenham Reduced Chelsea’s Gap After Win, Manager Speaks Ahead Of Man United Clash

Tottenham Hotspur recorded their seventh consecutive win in the Premier League on Saturday.

The White Hart Lane outfit thrashed Bournemouth 4-0 to successfully reduced their gap behind first placed Chelsea to four points.

Chelsea plays Manchester United on Sunday evening at Old Trafford, and the Stamford Bridge club are going into the game fully aware that there closest rivals have reduced the gap of their lead.

And ahead of the game at Old Trafford, Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino has asked if the west London club can handle the pressure ahead of the clash against Manchester United.

Last season, Leicester City dramatically won the premier league title while Tottenham finished second behind them. Right now this season, they are still second placed and hope to overhaul Chelsea with few games left in the premier league.

The win against Bournemouth at White Hart Lane saw their title run boosted. Harry Kane successfully scored his twentieth goal of the season in the premier league and helped his side to the get the full three points from the encounter.

The Tottenham manager is of the opinion that Chelsea are still the favourites to win the premier league this season even if they should lose to Man United, as he feels four points is still a lot.

He however stressed that it would be fantastic if after the clash at Old Trafford, the gap remains four points behind Chelsea.
