Tottenham needed VAR penalty to prevail over Chelsea in midweek and will now face another top 6 side in the face of Manchester United. They are occupying 3rd place at the moment and are six points away from leaders Liverpool.

Currently sitting 6th in the standings, they are just 6 points away from 4th placed Chelsea and pretty much are back in the battle for a top 4 finish, something unthinkable just a few weeks earlier.
