Tottenham's Top 4 chances took a blow late on the Monday Night Football.
Aston Villa's landed a potentially decisive blow to Tottenham's top 4 chances with their rescue act against Liverpool in a 3-3 draw on the Monday Night Football.
Tottenham Top 4 Odds
According to the latest Top 4 odds through oddschecker, Ange Postecoglou's side are now less than 10% likely to secure the last Champions League place going into their match tonight against title-chasing Manchester City.
Jhon Duran's late double - combined with Villa's superior goal difference - means Unai Emery's side will probably only need a point from their final match against Crystal Palace, even if Tottenham beat both City and Sheffield United.
Because of the goal difference (eight in Villa's favour), Spurs were always likely to need two wins from their last two matches but two defeats for Villa would have opened the door for them to steal fourth place.
The bookies have reacted to last night's match by stretching Tottenham's top 4 odds from 9/1 to 12/1 or 10/1 to 14/1. The shortest odds remain 10/1 (9.1% chance), with the best price of 14/1 on bet365 implying just a 6.7% chance.
Villa, meanwhile, are now given a 96.2% chance even at best odds of 1/25 (shortest price 1/33). 1/20 was available on Sky Bet before last night's game.
Of course, Spurs' chances are not helped by first coming up against a City side gunning for the title. Pep Guardiola's are a best price 4/11 on William Hill (shortest 2/7) to secure their fourth title in a row. The Gunners are waiting in the wings at a best price of 12/5 on LivescoreBet.
