Tottenham's next five Premier League fixtures compared with Big Six rivals

Ahead of matchweek seven in the Premier League, we look at Tottenham's next five league fixtures compared with their big six rivals. Tottenham Hotspur 's search for their first win of the season continues after six games, with their latest outing ending in a1-1 draw against Manchester United.

Spurs were again the better of the two sides but failed to make their dominance count before United struck first. The Lilywhites, however, showed good fighting spirit, managing to pull a goal back despite going down to ten men.

Head coach Roberto De Zerbi believes his team needed to overcome such adversity, explaining why he kissed Rodrigo Bentancur after the midfielder was sent off. He said: "I kissed Rodrigo, and I said thanks, because it's clear it's a mistake from Rodrigo, because it's not the right reaction in football, but now Tottenham needs to react.

Sometimes the reactions are not nice, not positive for the team, but I think in that moment, in 10 players, maybe we played with more courage, we played with more energy, and we changed the game. From a long time Tottenham played without this blood, this character, and I want it.

Now I am the coach, and I want to see this character every game, because Manchester United in the second half showed character, not just the quality. Just with the quality, we can't win the games.

With the qualities, with the character, with the right energy, I think we are going to win many games, and we are going to score many goals."
