We are starting matchday 12 in the Premier League with an interesting clash, as the now second-placed Tottenham collide with Wolves (fourteenth), trying to recover the top.
Wolverhampton is at the 14th spot with 3 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses. They are slowly recovering from a terrible start after their surprising win over Manchester City.
Their opponents, the Spurs, are currently 2nd, with 8 wins 2 draws, and a single loss so far. That defeat came at the hands of Chelsea in an incredible upset in their most recent match.
Both teams are looking to win again, but one comes from a way better season, so let’s get ready for the clash.
When:
Saturday, November 11, 08:30 AM ET at the Molineux Stadium
Moneyline odds:
Wolves +220
Tottenham +116
Draw Offs:
+265
Where Can I Watch it?
Why Bet on the Wolves?
On yet another disastrous weekend for the PGMOL, Wolves boss Gary O’Neil fell victim to a controversial call against his side at Bramall Lane. Newly promoted Sheffield United clinched their first win of the season.
An 89th-minute strike from Jean-Ricner Bellegarde would ostensibly be enough for Wolves to walk away with a point after Cameron Archer’s piledriver broke the deadlock. However, with 100 minutes on the clock, Oliver Norwood smashed home from 12 yards after Fabio Silva was adjudged to have felled George Baldock.
As Bramall Lane revealed in a long-awaited maximum, O’Neil made no bones about his feelings towards the officials on yet another excruciating afternoon, claiming that “the division is in a crazy place with VAR” and suggesting that Baldock bought the foul for the Blades’ dramatic late spot-kick.
Defeat to Paul Heckingbottom’s men ended a four-game unbeaten run for Wolves. They had taken points from Manchester City, Aston Villa, and Newcastle United during that solid sequence. However, the team slipped to 14th in the standings, albeit with a six-point buffer to the relegation zone.
Why Bet on Tottenham?
For a little over 48 hours, Tottenham could proudly boast the last unbeaten record standing in the 2023-24 Premier League season. This, after witnessing bitter adversaries Arsenal fall victim to another dose of VAR controversy in their 1-0 defeat at Newcastle United.
However, as Mauricio Pochettino strode across the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium touchline for the first time since his 2019 sacking, few could have envisaged the imminent Lilywhites implosion. Postecoglou’s men succumbed to a Cole Palmer penalty and Nicolas Jackson treble after Dejan Kulusevski’s deflected opener.
Not long after escaping potential red cards in the first half, Destiny Udogie and Cristian Romero had to take the walk of shame on a nightmarish evening for the nine-man North London giants. Notwithstanding, their questionable decision to persist with a high defensive line ended up backfiring horribly.
Final Betting Analysis: Wolves vs. Tottenham
While some applauded Tottenham and Postecoglou for risking it all against Chelsea with a high defensive line, others lambasted the Australian as Jackson tapped in three times in the final 20 minutes. Whatever the case, we can be sure that the Spurs boss will continue with such tactics no matter what personnel is at his disposal.
Even with nine men, Tottenham were not without their opportunities on Monday, and given Wolves’ recent propensity for scoring and shipping goals, we can envisage an entertaining draw on Saturday breakfast.
Go for a draw at +265. If you bet $100 at such odds, you could get $265 for a total payout of $365.
