Tottenham Hotspur look to keep their levels up when they host fourth-place Nottingham Forest in North London on Monday.
Spurs are into the semifinals of the Europa League, closing in on a title despite living deeeeeep down the Premier League table in 15th place.

WATCH – Spurs v Nottingham Forest
Forest were in Spurs’ position last season but have surged up the Premier League table, their 57 points 20 more than their Monday hosts.
In third place for most of the season, Forest have sunk two points behind Newcastle and are just two points above Man City. With Chelsea and Aston Villa just one point behind City, Champions League qualification is very much in question for Nuno Espirito Santo.
