The quest for a European qualification spot comes alive for Tottenham with hopes of leapfrogging Everton. The Lillywhites play host to Wolves at the Tottenham Hotspurs Stadium with kickoff at 4:05 pm.
Tottenham comes off a disappointing 3-1 loss to Leeds United, whereas Wolves registered a triumphant 2-1 win over Brighton. Moreover, Wolves have a slim chance of finishing in the top half table for the third successive season.
Interim head coach Ryan Mason faces a tough time in charge with two losses in his last three matches in charge. The first loss came in the EFC Cup final to Manchester City. It followed with an embarrassing 3-1 loss to Leeds United.
However, Tottenham has a strong record at home than while on the road. A win this weekend will move the side level on points with West Ham United. There is stiff competition from Everton, who take on Sheffield United later on the day. A win for the Toffees pushes them equal on points.
On the other hand, Nuno Espirito’s won both travels to Tottenham since their promotion to the Premier League in 2018. Additionally, Wolves have a good record, especially in North London. Raul Jimenez scored on both occasions. However, the talisman remains sidelined since November with a head injury. A win this weekend elevates their chances of landing a top-half finish.
