Tottenham Hotspur vs Wolverhampton Wanderers: Will the Spurs rehabilitate themselves for their recent failure against Southampton?

Tottenham lost dramatically at home to Southampton this week. However, Antonio Conte's men will have a chance to make amends for the defeat this weekend. They will play host to Wolverhampton, defeated by Spurs' principal rivals, Arsenal.

Tottenham suffered their second successive defeat this week as they suffered a 2:3 loss at home to Southampton. The Spurs led 2:1 but conceded two unanswered goals in the final ten minutes. At the same time, the Saints beat the Londoners by kicking more than three times as many attempts (23 against eight shots on goal, 10:3 on shots on goal). In terms of possession, Tottenham also conceded (47:53%). However, they retain an arithmetical chance of getting back into the top 4. It should not be forgotten that Spurs managed to qualify for the next round of the FA Cup by beating a solid Brighton side (3:1).

This midweek, Wolverhampton's five-match unbeaten run was interrupted. Wolves lost at home to Arsenal (0:1). Even Gabriel Martinelli's 69th-minute sending-off failed to bring Wolves back into the game. Therefore, Wolverhampton sat in eighth place. It is their second defeat in all competitions. Last weekend, wolves crashed out of the FA Cup in a 0:1 home defeat to Norwich.

We believe the game will be unproductive, especially since the Wolves have scored and conceded less than 20 goals in more than 20 rounds. Therefore we recommend betting a total under 2.5 for 1.025 from Bet365.

We also believe that Tottenham will dominate their field of play against the counter-attacking Wolves, at least in terms of the number of shots and standards. We want to highlight the corner kicking odds in favour of the home side here. 22Bet gives odds of 2.2 for a Spurs' handicap (-2.5).

In conclusion, we still tend to think that Wolverhampton can take the points. That's why we recommend betting the visitors' handicap (+1) for 1.7 from 1xBet.
