Disaster struck Tottenham.

Tottenham are facing a prospect few of their fans dared to imagine when the season began: a battle to avoid relegation from the Premier League.

Highlights Tottenham 1-2 Newcastle: Tottenham continued their poor form by losing 1-2 to Newcastle in the 26th round of the Premier League on the morning of February 11th.

Following their 1-2 defeat to Newcastle at home in the 26th round of the Premier League, Tottenham are in a crisis of form, making the risk of relegation clearer than ever.

This defeat marks Tottenham's 15th loss under manager Thomas Frank. Statistics show that the Danish strategist has the lowest win rate among Tottenham managers in the Premier League era, at 27%.

In their last 16 league matches, Spurs have only managed two wins, a record that clearly reflects the team's overall decline.

With only about 10 rounds remaining in the 2025/26 season, Tottenham were dragged down into the relegation zone, even considered more vulnerable to relegation than some newly promoted teams like Leeds or Sunderland. This was an unbelievable scenario for a club that used to regularly compete for a Champions League spot.

One of the reasons Tottenham faces the risk of relegation is the progress of their direct competitors. West Ham, under the leadership of manager Nuno Santo, is showing strong signs of resurgence. In the last six rounds, the team has earned 10 points and played with great team spirit.

Meanwhile, Tottenham lacked both stability and confidence. A depleted squad due to injuries, declining form from many key players, and a lack of fighting spirit led to them consistently dropping points.

"Tottenham are facing a relegation battle. The team lacks the necessary confidence. They also don't have the stars capable of turning things around," commented Sky Sports pundit Michael Bridge.

Normally, 40 points is the threshold needed for Premier League clubs to avoid relegation. Currently, Tottenham only have 29 points. Sky Sports suggests that if they continue to perform poorly, reaching 40 points will be a difficult goal for Tottenham.

From being a team that once competed for a top-four finish, Tottenham now faces the risk of relegation to the Championship. If they don't quickly improve their form in the crucial final stages of the season, the prospect of being relegated could very well become a reality for the London club.
