Tottenham suffered a heavy defeat (0-3) at home to Nottingham Forest, managed by Vítor Pereira, this Sunday, seriously complicating their fight for survival in the Premier League. The match was seen as crucial, but goals from Igor Jesus, Morgan Gibbs-White, and Taiwo Awoniyi determined the outcome in favor of the visitors. The situation became even more bitter for the North London club as Gibbs-White, one of the scorers, was a transfer target for Spurs last summer. The frustration of the fans was evident, with many leaving the stadium after the second goal in the 62nd minute. With this result, Tottenham remains the only team in the Premier League without a win in 2026, accumulating five draws and eight losses. This negative streak of 13 winless games in the league matches a club record dating back to 1912. Only once in their history in the top division have Spurs had a worse streak, when they went 16 games without a win between 1934 and 1935. In the standings, Tottenham has dropped to 17th place, with only one point ahead of West Ham, managed by Nuno Espírito Santo, the first team in the relegation zone, which also lost this round against Aston Villa (2-0). Meanwhile, Nottingham Forest has climbed to 16th place, now two points ahead of Spurs, with seven games remaining in the season. The future of coach Igor Tudor also seems increasingly uncertain. In his first seven games in charge, he has already recorded five losses, with only one win and one draw. The victory came in the second leg of the Champions League Round of 16 against Atletico Madrid, and, along with a draw against Liverpool, may have secured the coach some extra time in his position. Tottenham's next three challenges will be an away match against Sunderland, a home game against Brighton, and a visit to Wolverhampton.
