He who dares wins: The guide to how Harry 'Houdini' plans to save Spurs
Magic wand: Redknapp has his sights set on 18 points to cement the club's Premier League survival[LNB] Spurs[LNB]boss Harry Redknapp thinks Tottenham need to win six more Premier League games to stay up. [LNB]But where are those eighteen points going to come from? Is Harry Houdini going to magic them up out of thin air? You wouldn't put it past him.[LNB]'We've got to win six games to make sure we're OK,' he said before Sunday's north London derby, a 0-0 draw that earned Spurs a precious point in their relegation battle. [LNB]'Everybody's got to put a shift in.'[LNB]Tottenham had just two league points in the bag when Redknapp took over in October and now sit among the pack scrapping for survival in the bottom half of the table on 25 points.[LNB]But can Redknapp's new-look squad get another six wins in this season's Premier League? Spurs still have to play Manchester United[LNB], Chelsea[LNB], Aston Villa[LNB]and Liverpool[LNB]in their 13 remaining games.[LNB]Here is Sportsmail's[LNB]guide to Spurs' run in…[LNB] Safe as houses, on the brink or a goner? What does the future hold for the remaining 18 Premier League bosses?[LNB]Modric: 'Spurs deserved more than a point against Arsenal' [LNB]You should have won derby for Spurs, Arsenal's Arshavin taunts pal Roman [LNB]You can't put a price on silver - Spurs have spent £150million more than their bitter rivals Arsenal but it's the Gunners that have won the big pots [LNB]TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR FC NEWS FROM ACROSS THE WEB[LNB][LNB]Hull (a) Feb 23REDKNAPP: Win number one. As the two Dawsons go head-to-head for the first time this season Redknapp will be hoping it will be the younger brother, Michael, who comes out on top (there's a third footballing Dawson, you know - Kevin, who played for Chesterfield).[LNB] Samba beat: Geovanni's sublime free-kick condemned Spurs to a 1-0 defeat at White Hart Lane and cost former boss Juande Ramos his job[LNB]REALISM: Draw. Hull City[LNB]won 1-0 at White Hart Lane earlier in the season but Spurs are a different proposition under Redknapp. Both teams are prone to defensive lapses, so they could share the spoils.[LNB]Sunderland (a) TBCREDKNAPP: Draw. This game was due to be played on Saturday February 28 but will be rearranged owing to Spurs' run to the Carling Cup final. Redknapp will be hoping Tottenham's new signings will be given enough time to gel before this fixture.[LNB]REALISM: Loss. A Kenwyne Jones-inspired Sunderland [LNB]victory.[LNB]Middlesbrough (h) March 4REDKNAPP: Win number two. Time to show Stewart Downing what he's missing out on.[LNB] Missing man: Stewart Downing could have been a Spurs player had Redknapp got his own way during the transfer window[LNB]REALISM: Win. Boro [LNB]at home is a must-win, no matter where you are in the table.[LNB]Aston Villa (a) March 15REDKNAPP: Loss. Villa[LNB]are a 'triffic' side and are flying at the moment. [LNB]REALISM: Loss. Oh well, taking three points off Aston Villa might help Arsenal's cause, anyway.[LNB]Chelsea (h) March 21REDKNAPP: Draw. Arsenal[LNB]and Manchester United both dropped points at White Hart Lane, so why not Chelsea[LNB]?[LNB]REALISM: Loss. Chelsea are a better side away from home and will need every point they can muster by this stage of the season to be sure of a Champions League spot.[LNB]Blackburn (a) April 4REDKNAPP: Win number three. Spurs have managed just two away wins all season but Redknapp will targeting at least a point from his trip to Ewood Park.[LNB]REALISM: Draw at best. And it won't be pretty. Blackburn[LNB]still have to go to Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea so Sam Allardyce will be looking for points from a home game against Spurs.[LNB]West Ham (h) April 11REDKNAPP: Win number four. You've got to win your home games.[LNB] Hammer time: Ledley King headed to score during Spurs' 2-0 win at Upton Park earlier this season[LNB]REALISM: Draw. Difficult to call, this one. Gianfranco Zola has got West Ham[LNB]playing some good attacking football, but Spurs might have more to play for by mid-April if the Hammers are safe.[LNB]Newcastle (h) April 18REDKNAPP: Win number five. Again, taking points at home is vital, particularly against sides in the bottom half of the table.[LNB]REALISM: Win. Although, it depends which Newcastle[LNB]side turns up.[LNB]Man Utd (a) April 25REDKNAPP: Loss. Winning at Old Trafford is a tough ask in anybody's book. [LNB] Repeat chance: Spurs old boy Dimitar Berbatov sank Redknapp's side in the FA Cup at Old Trafford and will be eager to score past his former employers again[LNB]REALISM: Loss. Do you think Manchester United will have conceded a league goal by then?[LNB]West Brom (h) May 2REDKNAPP: Win number six. Spurs could be home and dry with three points against West Brom [LNB]and will be targeting this fixture as a must-win game.[LNB]REALISM: Win, although the Baggies will scrap for every last point they can earn in the Premier League.[LNB]Everton (a) May 9REDKNAPP: Draw. A point would be nice. [LNB]REALISM: Loss. A Tim Cahill header from a set piece will give the Toffees another three points.[LNB]Manchester City (h) May 16REDKNAPP: Win number seven, a bonus. This will be Spurs' last realistic opportunity to get three points as a visit to Anfield on the final day of the season isn't likely to yield a victory. Although Robbie Keane might have something to say about that…[LNB]REALISM: Draw. It depends which Manchester City[LNB]turns up, but the spoils could be equal with lots of goals.[LNB]Liverpool (a) May 24REDKNAPP: Loss. Robbie Keane will have an added incentive to put a couple in the net in front of the Kop but this won't be a game Redknapp will want to rely on for points. [LNB] Points to prove: Robbie Keane will be desperate to silence his Liverpool critics[LNB]REALISM: Loss. The title race may be over by May 24, but Liverpool don't give away three points at Anfield without a fight. And Spurs haven't had that much fight in them this season, to be fair.[LNB] Safe as houses, on the brink or a goner? What does the future hold for the remaining 18 Premier League bosses?[LNB]Modric: 'Spurs deserved more than a point against Arsenal' [LNB]You should have won derby for Spurs, Arsenal's Arshavin taunts pal Roman [LNB]You can't put a price on silver - Spurs have spent £150million more than their bitter rivals Arsenal but it's the Gunners that have won the big pots [LNB]TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR FC NEWS FROM ACROSS THE WEB[LNB] [LNB]
