Tottenham star Harry Kane hopes his team can put
the pressure on Chelsea by claiming a win over
West Ham on Friday.
Mauricio Pochettino's men are just four points
adrift of the Premier League leaders with four
games to play this season.
A win at London Stadium would cut that deficit to
one, with Chelsea not in action until Monday –
when they host Middlesbrough.
Kane said playing before their title rivals was an
advantage, and he hopes Spurs can capitalise.
"We just have to try to finish strong," he said.
"We've got another game Friday night and it's
good to play first. Hopefully, we can drop the gap
to one point and then see what happens."
Tottenham are on a nine-match winning run in the
league, including a 2-0 result over Arsenal last
time out.
Spurs were also in title contention last season
before a poor finish to the campaign saw them end
up third and 11 points behind eventual champions
Leicester City.
"We knew what it was like last year with Leicester
playing before us. It is difficult," Kane said.
"It is good to try to play first and try to put that
pressure on, so it will be good to play on Friday
night.
"It is another tough game away from home but
hopefully we can get that win, put that pressure on
and wait and see."
