Tottenham Hotspur’s festive fixtures have been locked in, with the club now learning how the busiest time in the English football calendar will pan out.

Spurs are coming out of the October international break with plenty of work to do, sitting ninth in the Premier League after seven games with 10 points on the board, four points adrift of the top four.

Things don’t get any easier from here, however, with Spurs facing a busy October and November schedule of Premier League, Europa League and EFL Cup action.

Ange Postecoglou‘s men come up against the likes of Manchester City twice, Aston Villa, West Ham, Galatasaray and Roma during the next month-and-a-half.

Then, things get really busy with December and January bringing in the famously busy English festive period.

Tottenham Hotspur’s festive schedule confirmed

Tottenham confirmed via their official social media channels on Tuesday the dates and kick-off times for their Premier League fixtures throughout December and January.

Included in the schedule are key clashes against the likes of Chelsea, Liverpool, Newcastle and Arsenal. Their Boxing Day fixture, meanwhile, sees them travel to Nottingham Forest.

Spurs will also have to manage Europa League commitments during the festive period, travelling to Scottish giants Rangers on December 12th and German side Hoffenheim on January 23rd, while a week later, they host Elfsborg of Sweden.

Depending on how they do against Manchester City, Spurs may also have further action in the EFL Cup to contend with, as the quarter-finals and semi-finals are due to take place the weeks commencing December 16th and January 6th, respectively.

For now, Postecoglou will remain focused on this weekend’s London derby with West Ham.

The Lilywhites will be keen to make amends after letting a two-goal lead slip in shocking fashion to lose 3-2 away at Brighton prior to the international break.
