With Spurs going out of the Europa Conference League, in part because of a fixture it was unable to fulfill because of COVID-19, and losing early in the FA Cup, they were able to focus solely on the Premier league in the final weeks of the season, an advantage Arsenal had enjoyed almost from the start of the season. That meant not only was it more rested, but it had more time to prepare specific pressing plans. And that perhaps has been the most encouraging aspect of the run-in, that Spurs have begun to look like a Conte side, overwhelming opponents.
