Tottenham are increasingly optimistic that they will play in their new stadium before the end of the season — and that Saturday’s 1-1 draw with Arsenal was their final domestic fixture at Wembley this year.

The venue for Spurs’s five remaining home League matches of the season – and a potential Champions League quarter-final – remains unconfirmed but the club hopes to provide some clarity to supporters, and could even make an announcement this week.

They aim to stage two test events at their behind-schedule new stadium in late March, though the club is yet to confirm this with Haringey Council, before opening the ground against Brighton on April 7. If the Seagulls beat Millwall on March 17 to progress to the FA Cup semi-finals, Spurs could turn their attentions to Huddersfield’s visit on April 13.

It is unclear whether Uefa would allow the first game at the new ground to be a Champions League fixture, with some at the organisation thought to have misgivings about that possibility. The last-eight matches are scheduled for April 9-10 and 16-17.

Spurs face Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday in the second leg of their last-16 tie, protecting a 3-0 advantage from the first match.
