Spurs boss confident top-four finish can be secured
Harry Redknapp is confident Tottenham can secure a top-four finish in the Premier League, but admits 'it's going to be tight'.
Redknapp saw his Spurs side slip to fourth in the standings on Wednesday as they were held 1-1 on home soil by Stoke and arch-rivals Arsenal picked up a narrow 1-0 victory at Everton.
Tottenham still hold a five-point advantage over fifth-placed Chelsea, but have seen the Blues rediscover their form since parting company with Andre Villas-Boas.
Redknapp concedes that the battle to wrap up UEFA Champions League qualification is heating up, but remains optimistic regarding Spurs' chances of returning to European football's top table.
Powerful
"Finishing in the top four and getting into the Champions League is all-important, and it's going to be tight," he told
London 24.
"Chelsea are good, that's a powerful team again.
"Am I more worried about them than Arsenal? Not really, they're both bang there, both strong sides who were both red-hot favourites to finish in front of Tottenham at the start of the year.
"I think someone said we were 12/1 to be the top London club, which sounds like a big price to me. They're both dangerous but so are we, we've got good players as well.
"We're in a great position and I think we can have a great end to the season as well. We've got so much to look forward to."
