Tottenham Hotspur are fighting against relegation in the Premier League with just a few games left, yet they rank among the top five away teams in England’s top flight. At home, however, the story is drastically different. With a squad valued at €802.5 million, Spurs are the ninth most valuable team in the world, but their home record is one of the weakest across Europe. Transfermarkt takes a closer look at the teams with the worst home performances, including a Bundesliga club.
The worst home records belong to Hellas Verona and Pisa Sporting Club from Serie A. Verona averages just 0.44 points per home game, while Pisa is only slightly better at 0.56. Unlike Tottenham, their home form reflects their overall league standing—both clubs sit at the bottom of the table and have already been relegated.
VfL Wolfsburg are even weaker at home than Tottenham. The Wolves manage only 0.59 points per home game, the worst home record in the Bundesliga. However, thanks to their away form, Wolfsburg still have a chance to secure a relegation playoff spot on the final matchday. They are level on points with St. Pauli and FC Heidenheim but have a better goal difference. Wolfsburg travel to Millerntor on Saturday, while in-form Heidenheim host Mainz 05.
Among Europe’s top five leagues, FC Metz share the same home points average as Wolfsburg (0.59), followed by Tottenham, FC Burnley, and Wolverhampton Wanderers from the Premier League, the world’s most expensive league. Burnley and Wolves average 0.67 and 0.72 points per home game respectively, and both have already been relegated. Tottenham, with 38 points, sit two points above 18th-placed West Ham United, thanks to their strong away record—fifth in the Premier League with 26 points, a positive goal difference, and 1.4 points per away game.
Celta Vigo show an even greater disparity between home and away form. At Estadio Balaídos, they have taken 20 points from 17 matches, but on the road they have collected 30 points, ranking third in LaLiga’s away table. Overall, they sit fifth in the league.
No other team in Europe deploys such a valuable squad so inefficiently as Tottenham. With a market value of €802.5 million, their poor points return is hard to explain. Roberto De Zerbi is the third manager this season, tasked with securing survival. The club also failed in cup competitions, exiting the Champions League in the round of 16 against Atlético Madrid after an early domestic exit.
Last season, Tottenham’s home form was already poor, with 38 points ranking 17th. But winning the Europa League provided some consolation and a return to the Champions League. This season, the decline has continued, and relegation is a real threat. Yet an average of 60,000 fans still attend matches at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. On the final matchday, they host Everton, the sixth-best away team in the league—a win could decide their fate.
