Richarlison has confirmed Tottenham will keep an eye on West Ham’s trip to Newcastle, but urged his team-mates to stay calm in the relegation battle.
Spurs are 17th in the Premier League and hold a two-point advantage over the bottom three ahead of this weekend where Roberto De Zerbi’s side are without a fixture.
Tottenham are next in action on Tuesday away to rivals Chelsea - who contest Saturday’s FA Cup final with Manchester City - and may have dropped into the relegation zone if West Ham win at Newcastle on Sunday.
Monday’s 1-1 draw at home to Leeds made it four unbeaten for Spurs, but also represented a missed opportunity to put another nail in the coffin of 18th-placed West Ham.
“It’s tough, but point by point we’re making progress and depending on the result of next weekend’s game, with one more point we can avoid relegation,” Richarlison told ESPN Brasil.
“We’ll be keeping an eye on our opponent (West Ham), but we need to do our part.
“We have the advantage of scoring well away from home, so it’s about staying calm.
“We played a very intense game (against Leeds), unfortunately we conceded a penalty goal, it’s part of football. Now it’s about continuing with these last two games.”
It has been a largely strong season individually for Richarlison, who has scored 11 goals in all competitions and won five points with his strikes in the Premier League.
Mikey Moore confirms Tottenham return this summer
On loan winger Mikey Moore has confirmed he will return to Spurs before deciding his next steps this summer.
He told Rangers official media channels ahead of their season finale against Falkirk: "Mixed emotions for the game tomorrow, it is not the position we wanted to be in, but it is my last game. For me, I have so much love for everyone. I understand the way people feel, and I have tried to give my all for the club. This club has been a huge part of who I am going to become. I am a fan of this club for the rest of my life.
"The backing that this club has, there needs to be a few changes, but there is a base there to go and make a mark. Obviously, we need to win the league and Europe, but it is there.
"There is a new manager at Spurs at the moment. Obviously, I am a Spurs player, so I will go back and continue to work hard."
De Zerbi has a host of exciting players out on loan set to return this summer, with Moore joining centre-back Luka Vuskovic and striker Will Lankshear.
