Tottenham will decide the outcome of the Premier League title race. That is the view of Sky Sports pundit Jamie Redknapp.
The Lilywhites were always going to have a big say on who won the crown, given they have to play all three contenders in the run-in. Spurs face Arsenal in a huge North London Derby on April 21, with a trip to Anfield to take on Liverpool the following weekend.
There's also a home game with Manchester City to fit in — likely to be the last week of the season — as Ange Postecoglou's side have a major say in what happens on the final day of the campaign and where the silverware ends up.
Spurs brushed aside Nottingham Forest on Sunday evening to move back into fourth place in the table. They, of course, have their own ambitions to worry about with that final Champions League spot up for grabs.
The league is in Arsenal's hands following the weekend's results as they top the table on goal difference. The Gunners beat Brighton 3-0 at the Amex Stadium, while Liverpool could only draw with fierce rivals Manchester United at Old Trafford.
But Redknapp has warned Arsenal they «will drop points» against Spurs in the North London Derby in a couple of weeks' time. Speaking after Spurs' win over Forest, he said: «We’ve seen what it is like today and Spurs are a lot better team than Manchester United, how difficult they’re going to make it for Arsenal.
