Tottenham Hotspur are being tipped to turn around their disastrous form – and ease the pressure on manager Ange Postecoglou.
Spurs were humbled 3-2 at Everton in their last Premier League game – prompting reports that their Australian manager could be set for the sack.
But the club’s owner, Daniel Levy, is believed to have assured the former Celtic boss his job is safe and that he will back him in the January transfer window.
Now, in a further boost, a Three Lions legend has forecast Spurs to win at the weekend.
Terry Butcher expects Tottenham to beat Leicester and Man City to edge Chelsea this weekend
PA
In his weekly round of predictions Terry Butcher, now leading inspirational keynote speaker , told GB News he is backing Spurs to beat Leicester 1-0.
If correct, the pressure would switch to the Foxes under-fire manager Ruud Van Nistelrooy who has failed to arrest the side’s poor league form since arriving at the King Power stadium.
Elsewhere, Butcher is predicting wins for Arsenal, Brighton, Liverpool, Newcastle and Aston Villa.
He’s also backing Manchester United to bounce back from their shocking home defeat to Brighton last weekend by going to Fulham at the weekend and winning 3-1.
In the weekend’s standout game he’s tipping Manchester City to carry on their resurgent league form by overcoming Chelsea 2-1 at the Etihad.
Butcher is also predicting two draws at the weekend. He thinks high-fliers Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest will cancel each other out and play out a 1-1 draw.
And he thinks it will also be 1-1 between Crystal Palace and Brentford at Selhurst Park.
Read on below for his predictions in full.
