Beyond that, Tottenham must still find a way to secure six more points if they are to hit the magic 40-point mark that could well guarantee their safety.Tim Sherwood believes the game against Chelsea could give Tottenham another shot at a win with the Blues struggling for form. However, fresh developments at Stamford Bridge suggest that chance could be dented following the sacking of Liam Rosenior.The Chelsea boss has endured a disappointing last five games, with his side winless and failing to score in that period – a feat not seen in the last 114 years. His struggles have seen the Blues pull the plug on him, and Calum McFarlane will be the Chelsea interim head coach until June on an interim basis.🚨🔵 BREAKING: Calum McFarlane will be Chelsea new head coach until June on interim basis.McFarlane will be working with support from existing Chelsea backroom staff. pic.twitter.com/28ITUVoNsc— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) April 22, 2026Spurs wary of new manager bounce vs ChelseaSpurs do not take on Chelsea until matchweek 37 and, depending on results in their other fixtures, that game could be pivotal to their survival chances.We are currently in matchweek 33 and, just like Spurs, Chelsea have something to fight for, with European places still up for grabs.
