Roberto De Zerbi, manager of Tottenham Hotspur FC

Manager

Roberto De Zerbi

In charge since May 2026

De Zerbi-ball: bait the press by standing on the ball, then break it with fast vertical passes. Very short passing distances and a goalkeeper positioned high — spectacular when it works, dangerous when it doesn't.

Spurs narrowly avoided a relegation fight last season under interim management. De Zerbi signed a five-year deal to rebuild the club's identity.

Are Tottenham Hotspur FC a safe survivor pick?

Across the last 3 Premier League seasons — 2025/26 (17th), 2024/25 (17th), 2023/24 (5th) — Tottenham Hotspur FC avoided defeat in 55% of their league games. That is the baseline a survivor player should start from before looking at this week's fixture.

This season they have played 3, winning 0, drawing 1 and losing 2, with 0 scored and 5 conceded. At home they are 0-0-1; away from home 0-1-1.

Recent form reads L-L-D (oldest first), meaning they have come through 33% of their last 3 matches without losing.
