By Tom Vinall
Tottenham Hotspur’s Premier League fixture dates and times for December and January have now been confirmed, with plenty of reaction from the fanbase.
To begin, Spurs will travel to the Vitality Stadium to face AFC Bournemouth on Thursday, the 5th December – with kick off being 20:15 GMT. Dominic Solanke will face his former employers of four ½ years for the first time since leaving in the summer.
Three days later, on Sunday, the 8th of December, the club will host Chelsea, at 16:30 GMT. Let’s hope for a game not even 50% as fatal as the last time this fixture was played.
Next up is another game on the South Coast, with a trip to Southampton on Sunday, the 15th of December, with kick off being a lesser spotted 19:00 GMT slot.
After that, is a game against Liverpool for the final game before Christmas, with that game being on Sunday, the 22nd of December, at 16:30 GMT.
That game is followed up by a traditional 15;00 GMT game on Boxing Day, as Spurs will face former manager Nuno Espirito Santo as they play Nottingham Forest on the road.
The final game of 2024 is a home game against Wolves on the 29th of December, with a 15:00 GMT kick off for that one too.
The first game of 2025 is another home game, this time against Newcastle United at home on the 4th of January, with an early 12:30 GMT kick off there.
Then, strangely, Ange Postecoglu’s side will play the North London derby on a Wednesday night, with that game being played on the 15th of January, 20:00 GMT kick off.
Four days later, it will be the clubs final ever trip to Goodison Park (barring an FA Cup game), as they face Everton on Sunday, the 19th January, with a 14:00 GMT kick off.
Finally, Spurs will host Leicester City as Harry Winks and Oliver Skipp return to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
As for other games in that time, in between the fixtures with Chelsea and Southampton, Spurs will play away to Rangers in the Europa League on Thursday the 12th of December, with kick off being 20:00 GMT.
Ange’s side will play in the FA Cup third round between the games against Newcastle and Arsenal, with the ties taking place between the 10th and 13th of January.
Finally, between the games against Everton and Leicester, Spurs will play their final league phase game in the Europa League, as they travel to Bundesliga side Hoffenheim on Thursday, the 23rd of January, 17:45 GMT.
