All three of Tottenham’s games listed there will take place on a weekday. That’s usually grounds for fair complaints from the supporters, but these matches will obviously all take place without fans in attendance.

Each of those three initial Spurs games should also be quite challenging. United is in fifth, Sheffield United had been shocking the league and currently sit in seventh (just ahead of Tottenham), and West Ham always find motivation for a derby with Spurs, no matter what the Hammers current form is.

After those matches, there are still six Spurs matches that need to be scheduled. Those contests include a North London Derby with Arsenal and games against Everton, Bournemouth, Newcastle, Leicester City, and Crystal Palace.

Spurs have a bit of a hill to climb in the league table. The Lilywhites were struggling heavily when play was halted in early March. At the moment, Spurs are in eighth place in the table, with Champions League qualification seeming like a very tough ask for the squad.

But who knows what will happen after such an unprecedented amount of time off. If the Bundesliga’s restart is any indication, players will come back rusty and more prone to injuries. It feels unlikely given how the season was going, but maybe that will end up helping Spurs get over their struggles.

Expect the rest of the fixtures to be announced and confirmed soon as the league continues its discussions with TV broadcasters.
