Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp expects plenty more twists and turns before the end of the season in the race for fourth place in the Premier League.

Despite intense late pressure, Spurs were held to a 0-0 draw with fellow UEFA Champions League chasers Aston Villa at White Hart Lane on Saturday evening.

The stalemate meant that Redknapp's side could not regain the coveted fourth spot they had surrendered earlier in the day after Liverpool's win over Everton.

But the Tottenham manager is confident that there is still a long way to go in the battle to reach the European Cup.

Redknapp said: "Obviously it was a big result for Liverpool. They ground out a result. It's their weekend this week, it will be somebody else's next week, somebody else's the week after.

"Of course it's going to be tight, it's going to go all the way to the wire.

"You didn't see Manchester City getting beat at Hull, not many people would have tipped that one, would they?"
