Harry Kane believes Spurs supporters will still be hoping for him to defeat his old team.
Tottenham’s chances of qualifying for the Champions League were severely damaged over the weekend as they lost 4-0 against Newcastle and dropped out of the top four into fifth place.
Yet fifth spot could be enough to qualify for next season’s Champions League if the Premier League earns one of the two extra places available through UEFA’s coefficient system, which is decided on performance in Europe this season.
But England’s top flight (17.210) is currently missing out on an extra spot with Germany narrowly ahead of them in second (16.785), while Italy (18.428) are all but assured of a place.
An Arsenal victory over Bayern Munich in Wednesday’s Champions League quarter-final – which is finely poised following the 2-2 first-leg draw – would significantly improve England’s chances of securing an extra place in next season’s competition
