Even though the match result against Sheffield United will not affect Tottenham in any way even if they lose it but I think the Tottenham fans will surely not be happy if their team are unable to beat the bottom team of the table. I guess Tottenham will wrap up this season with a victory for their travelling fans in their final match tomorrow against Sheffield United.
Yes, even though it is not a match that determines the position, I think Tottenham must close the season with a win that will make the fans happy.
Moreover, Tottenham's last few matches were not good, they lost to Man City, lost to Liverpool, lost to Chelsea, lost to Arsenal, and even lost to Newcastle. These are indeed strong teams, but we can see that Tottenham's performance at the end of this season is not that good.
LOL, currently Tottenham points are 63 and Chelsea are 60 and also, Chelsea has the advantage in number of goals. So, if for example Tottenham loses and Chelsea wins, then Tottenham will be overtaken by Chelsea. With these factors, it would not be correct if you said about that even though Tottenham lost, it does not affect Tottenham position. LOL ! Moreover, Chelsea will also play at home against Bournemouth and thus, it is very possible for Chelsea to win in that last match. Therefore, a win or draw result is still important for Tottenham to finish in fifth position and in essence, Tottenham cannot afford to lose if Tottenham want to finish in fifth position to get a Europa League ticket of course.
