Tottenham to finish in the top 4 of the Premier League has shortened from 12/1 to 6/1 at Betfred as four of 12 bookmakers cut their odds.
The odds on a top 4 finish for Tottenham in the Premier League have been slashed from 12/1 to 5/1 with Ladbrokes after a statement win at Stamford Bridge.
Four of 12 bookmakers have cut their odds on Spurs to crack the top four this season.
Betfred still offer the best price on that outcome at 6/1, so the value has not completely disappeared.
Spurs beat Chelsea 2-0 on the road, with Mathys Tel named man of the match.
Arsenal are the favourites at a best price of 1/66 with Boyle Sports, with Tottenham seventh-shortest in the market.
Spurs went to Chelsea on 24 October 2026 and came away with a 2-0 win that has changed the whole conversation around them. It was goalless at the break and stubborn for long spells, but Roberto De Zerbi's side kept their shape and waited for their moment. The breakthrough came late, when Chelsea goalkeeper Mike Penders turned a corner into his own net under pressure. Cole Palmer's second yellow card soon after left the home side a man down, and Mathys Tel finished the job with a solo run and a low finish into the bottom corner. That was a man-of-the-match display from the forward, and he is the player carrying Tottenham's attack right now.
The reason the market moved so hard is simple: Chelsea sat in fourth on the log before kick-off, so this was a direct rival beaten on their own patch. De Zerbi said afterwards that a frank team meeting had changed the squad's mentality, and he called Spurs a "complete team". Bookmakers clearly believe him, which is why the price has come in this sharply on Tottenham's prospects of a top four finish in a matter of days.

What are the odds on Tottenham to finish in the top 4 of the Premier League?
Arsenal are the favourites at a best price of 1/66 with Boyle Sports, and that tells you the bookmakers see one of the four places as already spoken for. Behind them, the leading group is priced close together, and that is the story for Spurs. Tottenham are seventh-shortest at 6/1 with Betfred, so even after the cut they are still chasing rather than leading. The win at Chelsea matters more than most because it dented a side sitting inside the places, and that is exactly the kind of result that tightens up the table.
Arsenal – 1/66 with Boyle Sports, clear favourites and priced as a near formality.
Man City – 4/6 with Bet Victor, next in the betting.
Chelsea – 4/5 with Sporting Index and Spreadex, still fancied despite the home defeat to Spurs.
Liverpool – 5/6 with Boyle Sports, rounding out the leading four in the market.

Can Tottenham finish in the top 4 of the Premier League?
De Zerbi was clear that one big night proves nothing on its own, and that Spurs must keep this mentality and collective focus going if they want to change the narrative around the club for good. The next two outings give them the platform to do it: Crystal Palace visit before a trip to Leeds follows. Our view is that the bookmakers have moved for the right reasons. This side are playing as a unit, Tel is in form in front of goal and the result at Chelsea showed they can hurt the sides above them. Arsenal remain well clear at the top of the market, but if Spurs keep the collective spirit De Zerbi praised and Tel keeps delivering, the remaining places look far more open than the prices did before this result. The best price available on that top four finish is 6/1 with Betfred.
