Tottenham got very unlucky to leave Molineux Stadium empty-handed last Saturday after missing numerous chances against Wolves, especially in the first half of the affair.
Spurs were punished for their misses as they suffered the second consecutive 1-0 defeat on the road, following the surprising FA Cup elimination at the hands of Championship side Sheffield United.
Spurs are still fourth in the Premier League table but now only three points ahead of Liverpool who have a match in hand.
This leaves them with no room for mistakes in the home clashes against bottom-half opposition and this is exactly the kind of game they are going to have this Saturday as Nottingham Forest come to visit the capital for the Matchday No 27 tie.
The visitors somehow found a way to avoid the home loss to direct rivals Everton in an exciting 2-2 stalemate last Sunday at The City Ground.
They are now four points adrift of the red zone. However, head coach Steve Cooper has plenty of reasons for worries after his squad shipped six goals in the last two outings against West Ham and Everton.



译文(自动翻译仅供参考):

上周六，热刺在与狼队的比赛中错失了许多机会，尤其是在上半场，他们非常不幸地空手离开了莫里纽球场。
在足总杯意外被英冠球队谢菲尔德联队淘汰后，热刺连续两场客场0 - 1失利，他们的失误受到了惩罚。
热刺仍然在英超积分榜上排名第四，但现在只领先少赛一场的利物浦3分。
这使得他们在主场面对下半区的对手时没有犯错的余地，而这正是他们本周六将要进行的比赛，因为诺丁汉森林队将在比赛日第27场比赛中到访首都。
上周日，客队在曼城球场以2-2的平局避免了主场输给直接竞争对手埃弗顿。
他们现在距离红区有4分的差距。然而，主教练史蒂夫·库珀有足够的理由担心他的球队在最近两场对阵西汉姆联和埃弗顿的比赛中丢了6个球。
