Antonio Conte Reveals His Top Four Predictions For The EPL Season

Antonio Conte revealed his thoughts about how he believes the race for Champions League spots will end. The Tottenham boss claimed that his team has their work cut out to secure a top-four finish.

Tottenham has undergone a frustrating period in the recent past. For example, their aspirations of securing a trophy this season suffered a major blow after they were bundled out of the Champions League and FA Cup.

Currently, Antonio Conte’s men are fourth in the Premier League table, but their supporters are not happy with the club’s direction. Consequently, there are rumors that Conte’s tenure as Tottenham boss could end in the summer when his deal expires. Most bookmakers have Conte as the second-favorite manager to be sacked in the EPL.

If the predictions are accurate and Conte leaves, he will do so without helping The Lilywhites to a trophy. However, if he leads Tottenham to a top-four finish, he will have helped them to successive top-four finishes. Do you wager on EPL matches from Nigeria?

Conte Acknowledges the Race for Top Four is Tough
Tottenham sits fourth with 48 points, four ahead of fifth-placed Newcastle, who have played two fewer games. Despite that, Conte believes Chelsea, who are 11 points behind Spurs, cannot be discounted at this point.

Additionally, the Spurs manager believes that Manchester United has “guaranteed” a top-four finish. As a result, he thinks the other teams can only fight for the fourth spot. Conte claimed that there are many teams involved in the top four race. He also believes that Spurs will have to be at their best if they are to beat their competitors to a top-four finish.

Chelsea and Newcastle are Teams to Watch
Conte also claimed that Chelsea and Newcastle will be in the top four race until May. Conte believes that Newcastle is a different team this season and has the capacity to go on a good run and give Spurs a run for their money. The Italian tactician also believes that Chelsea, despite being 11 points behind Spurs, has a squad capable of winning 11 games in a row.

Be that as it may, Conte urged his team to focus on themselves. He stated that top clubs don’t look at other teams’ results but focus on their fixtures. As things stand, Spurs fans will see a top-four finish as a good performance for the season.

Bottom Line
The EPL is entering its final stretch, where teams work hard to finish strong. Spurs would have loved to be fighting for trophies at this point, but a top-four finish looks like their best bet.
