Wolverhampton Wanderers host Tottenham Hotspur in round 15 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, December 27th at Molineux Stadium (Wolverhampton)
In the 14th round, Wolverhampton somewhat sensationally lost to Burnley on the road (2:1). But if we look at recent results of the Wanderers, it is becoming apparent that they are extremely unstable this season. However, many clubs have such a sin in the current championship, so the Wolves still claim a place in European Cups. Let’s recall that Wolverhampton beat a very serious rival before the game with Burnley (a home 2:1 victory over Chelsea)). Then the Wanderers looked no worse than their opponents, and we can say that they deserved the victory for their fighting spirit, but a draw would certainly be a fairer result.

In general, Tottenham is trying to fight for the champion’s title. But due to the complicated calendar, bets on the Spurs’ victory justified themselves in only one of the five last rounds. Because of this unsuccessful streak, the team dropped to sixth place and fell six points behind Liverpool. In the last match, Spurs again could not resist a strong rival - they lost to Leicester in London (0:2). The Lilywhites started the match in their usual cautious style but conceded from the penalty spot at the end of the first half. That’s why they were forced to bare their rears in the second half of the meeting. However, this did not help either - Tottenham conceded another goal and eventually lost without responding with a single accurate shot.
We are sure that Mourinho understands that although Wolverhampton is not so high in the standings, it is a very dangerous opponent. And this means that the Spurs will choose careful defensive tactics, as they usually do it in games with grandees of English football. Beyond that, don’t forget the fact that the Wanderers are unexpectedly low-performing this season, so there is almost no reason to wait for a spectacular and scoring match. Perhaps one of the teams will not score at all.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score - no
