Is Tottenham a Title Contender?We are past the halfway mark in the 2011-2012 Premier League season and Tottenham continues to be a major surprise in soccer betting. Not many people believed that Tottenham was any kind of a threat to win the Premier League title before the season began but the Spurs are just three points behind Manchester City for first place with each team having played 20 games. Tottenham beat Everton on Wednesday 2-0 as Aaron Lennon and Benoit Assou-Ekotto scored goals. The game was a makeup for the match that was postponed from opening weekend. The win was huge for Tottenham as they tied Manchester United with 45 points, just three behind leader Manchester City. Before the season began it would have seemed laughable to consider Tottenham a title contender but with 18 games left in the season, the Spurs have a real chance. Manager Harry Redknapp’s team has played very well of late while both Manchester City and Manchester United have slipped. Tottenham has everything in place to win the title as they are excellent on defense, have a super goalkeeper in Brad Friedel and a solid offense led by Luka Modric. It was thought before the season began that Modric would be moved to Chelsea but that didn’t happen and Modric has been outstanding this season for the Spurs. Tottenham has been helped this season by not being in the Champions League so they don’t have that distraction. Redknapp has made all of the right moves so far but there is still a lot to do. The key stretch for Tottenham is coming up later this month as they will face Manchester City, Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester United in a six week period. Three of those four matches are on the road and to win the title, Tottenham is going to have to pick up some road points in those matches. Tottenham should win their next two matches against Wolverhampton and Wigan which would put them in a great position for their biggest match of the season at Manchester City next weekend. The Spurs lost 5-1 at home back in August but Tottenham is far better than they were back then while City is no longer invincible. “We are much better now than we were at the start of the season, so I’m really looking forward to the games that are coming up.” Tottenham’s Rafael Van der Vaart said, “We played well there last season but lost 1-0, so we will go there with confidence and there is no reason why we can’t win.”
