It has been an excellent period for Tottenham Hotspur, as they have moved into the Champions League spots in the Premier League standings. They will be bidding to continue that winning momentum this weekend when they travel to the Black Country to take on Wolves.
Premier League Preview
Antonio Conte may not be on the sidelines for Tottenham at present, but the Italian would likely be delighted with the performances of his team in recent weeks. Spurs have moved up to fourth in the standings after claiming four victories in their previous five matches, while they will come into this fixture chasing a third straight league win after victories against West Ham and Chelsea.
Spurs were extremely professional in their previous fixture, as they edged to a 2-0 win against a below-par Chelsea side. They broke the deadlock early in the second half after a sensational effort from Oliver Skipp from outside the box. Meanwhile, Harry Kane netted his 20th goal in all competitions to seal the victory with just eight minutes of the 90 remaining.
Wolves looked set to move away from the relegation places after picking up back-to-back wins last month, but they have been dragged back into the scrap at the bottom of the standings after failing to win their previous two. They were denied maximum points in their previous fixture against Fulham, as the Cottagers netted an equaliser with half an hour remaining.
That point means that Wolves remain just three points above the drop zone, while they remain the second-lowest scorers in the Premier League this term. Their home form will be key to their chances of safety this term, and they will likely come into this fixture with the same intensity that saw them beat Liverpool 3-0.
Wolves vs Tottenham Head to Head
Tottenham has picked up three wins from their last four matches against Wolves, which includes a 1-0 win away from home against their rivals this weekend on their previous trip to Molineux. Tottenham was also 1-0 winners in the previous meeting between the sides this season.
Wolves vs Tottenham Prediction
We expect this to be a low-scoring fixture between two sides that have been pretty solid defensively throughout the season. However, the slight preference goes the way of Spurs, who appears to have turned a corner in recent weeks, and we could see them securing a 1-0 win on the road on Saturday.
