Tottenham’s season hits new low with sixth-tier Macclesfield beating more Prem sides in 2026 and worst ever winless run

TOTTENHAM’s miserable season continues to deteriorate after falling to an 11th game in a row without a win.

Spurs have dropped to within one point of the Premier League relegation zone this week after West Ham and Nottingham Forest picked up vital points, while the north London club lost 3-1 to Crystal Palace.

They have not been boosted by a new manager bounce following the sacking of Thomas Frank, and have lost three in a row under interim Igor Tudor.

That has left them winless in 2026, while compounding them to a fifth home defeat in a row – something not seen since 2004.

Their 11-game run without tasting victory hasn’t been managed since 1975, while it is their longest winless run since a 15-game spell in 1935.

Indeed, sixth-tier club Macclesfield have won more games against Premier League opposition this calendar year, thanks to beating Crystal Palace in the FA Cup third round in January.

The saying goes that the table never lies, and the cracks were there to see last season when they finished 17th in the Prem.

Of the 17 ever-present clubs in the top flight since the start of the 2024/25 season, only Wolves, with 58, have picked up fewer points than Spurs, with 67.

Opta Analysts’ supercomputer has now given Spurs a 16.1 per cent chance at going down.

It hasn’t been the same recipe for disaster in Europe, with a Europa League win last campaign being backed up by a top-four finish in the Champions League league phase.

In fact, the 12 wins from their last 17 European games are more than their last 48 domestic league games, which have yielded 11 wins.

Since January 2025, three managers have taken two wins each at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Frank, Ange Postecoglou and Palace boss Oliver Glasner.

Spurs face Liverpool in the league at Anfield next, either side of a Champions League last 16 tie with Atletico Madrid.

They then host a key relegation six-pointer against Nottingham Forest.

Later games against fellow strugglers Wolves and Leeds could also prove decisive in the run-in.

In the event Spurs are relegated, on top of the humiliation of the feat, they would be facing a quarter of a BILLION pound black hole in their finances.
