Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Tottenham Hotspur
English Premier League, KO: 15:00 Mar 4, 2023, Molineux
Tottenham Hotspur travel to Wolverhampton Wanderers for a Premier League fixture on Saturday as they look to strengthen their top four quest.
Wolverhampton Wanderers are coming off a 2-0 defeat to Liverpool in their previous Premier League fixture. Once again, they struggled to create much in attack and finished with only one attempt on target through out the contest.
That was the third straight fixture without a win for Wolves, who remain three points above the relegation zone. Julen Lopetegui’s men head into Saturday’s clash with two wins and three defeats in their last five matches at Molineux.
The result also highlighted a problem that has plagued Wolverhampton Wanderers all season as they were once again toothless in attack. Raul Jumenez is still without a Premier League goal this season while January signing Matheus Cunha is currently struggling with an ankle problem.
Tottenham travel to Molineux off the back of a disappointing 1-0 defeat to Championship side Sheffield United in an FA Cup fourth round clash. It was a heavily rotated team and they failed to make their superior quality count, looking lethargic for much of the encounter.
Spurs will be disappointed with the performance and result as it means they are now almost certain to finish the season without any silverware. However, a small silver lining is that they can now turn their full attention to the top four race without any distractions.
The top four race appears to be going in favour of Tottenham Hotspur, who hold a four-point gap in the final Champions League spot and have won four of their last five Premier League matches. Antonio Conte’s men have kept clean sheets in all four wins and claimed a 2-0 victory over Chelsea in their previous fixture.
How the bookies view it
Tottenham Hotspur have the edge among the bookies and are priced at 24/19 by SBK to claim the win. A victory for Wolverhampton Wanderers is valued at 12/5 by Coral while a draw is set at odds of 12/5 by bet365.
Head to head
Tottenham Hotspur have a 40-24 advantage with 16 draws from 18 previous matches with Wolverhampton Wanderers. Spurs claimed a 1-0 victory in the reverse fixture back in August and also picked up a similar result on their last Premier League visit to Molineux.
Players to watch
Harry Kane started on the bench at Sheffield United but should be restored to the starting 11 on Saturday. The striker has 18 Premier League goals this season and having also scored the winner in the reverse fixture, could be backed at 29/20 by Unibet to find the net on Saturday.
Spurs appear to have tightened up at the back in recent times, keeping clean sheets in four of their last five Premier League matches. Centre-back Cristian Romero has been pivotal in that run and can guide the visitors to another clean sheet at 9/5 with William Hill.
Anything else catch the eye?
Given Tottenham’s recent defensive record and Wolves struggling in attack, BTTS NO can be considered at 11/10 with BetVictor. There have been under 2.5 goals in five of the last six meetings between both teams and a repeat could be on the cards at 13/16 with SBK.
Spurs have won to nil in four of their last five Premier League matches and could be set for a similar result at 29/10 with BetVictor.
