Tottenham need to finish the season strongly to qualify for Europe and can start by seeing off Wolves in London on Sunday.
Wanderers have little to play for but pride and have produced some mixed performances of late, so Spurs have to be rated a percentage pick to come out on top.
These teams have played out some entertaining encounters since the midlands outfit came up, though, with 19 goals scored in five head-to-head meetings.
We’ll go with 5/4 for a home win and over 2.5 in this game for our first Tottenham vs Wolves prediction.
A Look At Tottenham Hotspur’s Betting Odds
That bet would have paid out in the last two games at this venue, with Tottenham beating Southampton 2-1 and Sheffield United 4-0.
Spurs were denied a Premier League hat-trick when going down 3-1 at Leeds but it is fair to say they did not get the rub of the green at Elland Road.
Son Heung-min cancelled out a Stuart Dallas opener but further strikes from Patrick Bamford and Rodrigo sent them home empty handed.
Tottenham will look back on a Harry Kane effort ruled out for a marginal offside, though, while the England forward also hit the bar.
Distractions over who will manage the team next term and whether star names such as Kane could be sold off are evident but Spurs should be focused on the job in hand here.
“Our focus has to be on next week, the next game and I’m sure those conversations will happen over the summer,” said interim boss Ryan Mason.
“I think the bigger picture, discussions like that probably need to happen over the summer. Our focus, my focus, has to be on the next game now.”
Tottenham have enjoyed some fast starts at home this term, scoring seven goals in the first quarter of an hour and conceding none.
Looking at the Tottenham vs Wolves odds, we’re happy to take 16/5 for Spurs to be ahead after 15:00 minutes.
Last Spurs line-up: Lloris, Reguilon, Alderweireld, Aurier, Hojbjerg, Dier, Lo Celso, Alli, Son, Bale, Kane.
A Look At Wolverhampton Wanderers’ Betting Odds
Wolves made it three wins in five outings when coming from behind to beat Brighton 2-1 at Molineux but that bare stat masks a moderate run of form.
Having picked up just two points from five previous games, Wanderers were only workmanlike in edging out relegated teams Fulham and Sheffield United 1-0.
A 4-0 home loss to Burnley was followed by a 1-1 draw against second-from-bottom West Brom and last week’s win was a touch fortuitous.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s side were 1-0 behind and struggling until Lewis Dunk was sent off early on in the second half.
Adama Traore equalised on 76 minutes and Morgan Gibbs-White fired in a stoppage-time decider but we were not convinced by the overall display.
Nuno commented: “We had a very bad first half, a lack of energy, we didn’t play well, we were comfortable on the ball but didn’t threaten or break lines.
“We had to correct that and the boys showed a good reaction, even before the red card we started the second half well.”
However, we’re still keen to take Wanderers on and 5/4 for Spurs to lead at half-time and full-time completes our Tottenham vs Wolves betting tips.
Last Wolves line-up: Rui Patricio, Hoever, Ait Nouri, Coady, Kilman, Neves, Podence, Gibbs-White, Ferreira, Moutinho, Silva.
