Premier League 2015-2016 season top contenders Tottenham Hotspur (19-4-11, 68 points) will try to continue their consistent form throughout the year as they host lowly club West Bromwich Albion FC (10-14-10, 40 points) at their home stadium of White Hart Lane this Monday, April 25th as the current season slowly winds down to a close.

While things are looking bleak for the Spurs in terms of overtaking Leicester for the Premier League title, things are generally "fantastic" within the team, as manager Mauricio Pochettino said.

"The mood is fantastic on the training ground. It's impossible to get better motivation," said Pochettino. "We have built up the week in a fantastic way and now we need to be patient and wait for Monday."

"We are very happy with the way that we are playing in the last few games. But we need to keep working hard and this is our objective. We are still fighting for the title," he added.

The Spurs are coming off a 4-0 rout of Stoke City at the Britannia Stadium on April 18th, as per BBC Sport.

Striker Harry Kane and midfielder Dele Alli both scored braces on the way to the four-goal haul at the ninth and 71st and 67th and 82nd minutes respectively.

Tottenham had won four of its last five assignments and is still at the no. 2 spot of the league table, eight points behind current league leaders and potential 2015-2016 champions Leicester City and four points above third-placed team Manchester City.

Meanwhile, West Brom is on a five-game winless slide with their last match ending up in a 0-2 loss to Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium last Thursday, as reported by SkySports.

The Gunners' Chilean forward Alexis Sanchez scored the two goals in the contest at the sixth and 38th minutes as manager Tony Pulis' squad was unable to respond with any goals from their side.

With the loss, the Baggies are currently settled at the 14th spot of the league table, precariously nine points above the bottom three relegation area with only four games left in their current campaign.

The predicted result is a 3-0 romp for Tottenham Hotspur.

Tottenham Hotspur starting lineup (4-2-3-1 formation): Lloris; Walker, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Rose; Dier, Dembélé; Lamela, Alli, Eriksen; Kane

West Bromwich Albion starting lineup (4-3-3 formation): Foster; Dawson, McAuley, Evans, Chester; Fletcher, Yacob, Sandro; Sessegnon, Berahino, McClean
