Tottenham blow as Bundesliga beat Premier League to fifth Champions League spot

Arsenal's chances at a Premier League title may see a significant upward swing depending on an upcoming clash between Tottenham and Chelsea, a game that could indirectly impact both Manchester City and Arsenal’s title hopes.
This latest Chelsea-Tottenham encounter, billed as the "Battle of the Bridge", carries high stakes for both sides. A defeat for Tottenham’s Mauricio Pochettino could potentially jeopardize an already slim chance of endearing himself to Chelsea fans, adding to the pressure as he looks to secure his place at the club beyond this summer.

For Chelsea’s Ange Postecoglou, anything less than a win could effectively quash hopes of securing a top-four spot. Chelsea's recent disallowed goal against Aston Villa was disappointing, but the second-half comeback has kept them in the race for Champions League football.
Arsenal could indirectly benefit from the match's outcome as, in two weeks, Tottenham will host current champions Manchester City. Given Tottenham's historically challenging fixture against Manchester City, the results could potentially shift the dynamic in favor of either Manchester City or Arsenal.

Arsenal will keenly anticipate Tottenham keeping their Champions League hopes alive as it could potentially compel Spurs to withdraw points from Manchester City. Arsenal's best-case scenario is for the Tottenham-Man City match to be fraught with tension and stakes - namely, the Champions League hopes.
However, this further fuels the question of where Tottenham fans' loyalty would lie during the game, as they find themselves in a situation where fulfilling their own aspirations could inadvertently heighten the title chances of an ardent rival. But this remains a scenario to be considered later.
As it stands now, Arsenal eagerly hopes for a Tottenham triumph against Chelsea, after which they can shift their focus to understand the potentials of a City-Tottenham face-off five days later.
