Tottenham's recent 2-1 home defeat to Fulham has exacerbated their poor home form, leaving them 10th in the Premier League with no wins in their last four matches. While the team performs exceptionally well away from home, securing the joint-most away points and goals, their home record is among the worst in the league. They have accumulated only five points from seven home games, placing them 19th in the home-only standings.
This home form has been a persistent issue, predating the current manager. The loss to Fulham marked their 10th home defeat in the Premier League in the calendar year 2025, a club record they share with previous years. This historical context highlights the severity of their current struggles, which could see them finish with their lowest home-only league position since 1993/94 if current trends continue.
Adding to the concern is Tottenham's losing streak in home London derbies, having lost four consecutive matches for the first time in the Premier League era. The defeats, though often narrow, have often featured a lack of clear winning opportunities. Furthermore, a recent match saw them concede two goals within the first five minutes, a new club record for earliest concession of two goals at home in the Premier League, and historically, they have struggled significantly when trailing by two or more goals at halftime.
A key factor contributing to their poor home performance is a lack of goal-scoring. Tottenham has scored fewer home goals than all but the bottom two teams in the league. This is underscored by low expected goals (xG) metrics at home, indicating that the team is not creating enough high-quality scoring chances. Their overall statistics for shots and shots on target per game are at record lows since the 2003-04 season, suggesting a fundamental problem with their offensive strategy and chance creation rather than just missed opportunities.
