Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas described Wednesday's trip to Chelsea as a "massive, massive game" after Gareth Bale's late winner against Southampton kept his side in with a strong chance of Champions League qualification.
.
Villas-Boas, the man Chelsea sacked last season after just a few months in charge, will be hoping Manchester United can do him a favour on Sunday by beating the Europa League finalists.
.
If that were to happen, both sides would begin Wednesday's game at Stamford Bridge level on 65 points, although fourth-place Chelsea's goal difference is superior. Arsenal, who won 1-0 at Queens Park Rangers on Saturday, are third, two points ahead, but having played a game more.
.
"We are still in a great position, but it's extremely difficult," Villas-Boas said.
.
"We have a great week ahead of us with two away games, that are decisive to keep us in the frame.
.
Everything is in our hands and we hope to make that final push.
.
"The game against Chelsea will be a massive, massive game for us. Obviously it depends on whatever Arsenal and Chelsea do with their remaining fixtures, but at the moment we are still in with a shout and destiny is in our own hands."
