Tottenham demolished Bournemouth 5-0 at home on Boxing Day, sandwiching Christmas Day between that and a 6-2 thrashing of Everton before. They have won 5 Premier League matches on the bounce, qualified from their Champions League group against all the odds, and now find themselves above Manchester City in the league table. Liverpool are the next team on their list to leapfrog. The Reds are now firm title favourites and sit 6 points clear at the top of the table, but Tottenham will be keen to reduce that deficit on Saturday. Wolves certainly aren’t having a bad season. They will be disappointed with their 1-1 draw against Fulham on Boxing Day, but they have still won 3 of their last 5 Premier League games and find themselves in a more than respectable 10th position. Even with Wolves’ decent form, it’s hard to look beyond Spurs for this one. They have been sensational recently, and I’m expecting another high scoring win for Mauricio Pocchettino’s men.
Tottenham Hotspur Win And Total Over 2.5 Yes • 2.01
8 of Spurs’ last 11 league games have seen at least 3 goals scored, so I’m backing a Tottenham win and over 2.5 goals along with a 4-1 correct score predictions. I’m also backing Son Heung-Min to find the net again here. The South Korean has been in fine form recently, notching 4 goals in his last 2 appearances to take his tally up to 7 league goals for the season. These 7 goals have come from just 9 starts and 5 appearances from the bench, and he has scored 4 goals in 6 home outings this term.
Tottenham fans can't say they haven't seen any goals scored over the festive period. Wins over Everton and Bournemouth have seen them score 11 times and move up to second in the Premier League, six points behind Liverpool. The London team have won their last five league matches and only Liverpool and Manchester City have been able to beat them in their last 26 home games. There may be worries over their manager heading to Old Trafford in the summer but his team have to be seen as title challengers. They look set to get another three points at home to Wolverhampton Wanderers who after three straight wins have only one point from their last two matches. Only one of their last five away league games have ended in victory and that was at struggling Newcastle United. Tottenham have already beaten Wolves once this season, winning 3-2 at Molineux and can continue their impressive form with another home win that will take them to within three points of Liverpool, who play later in the day.
Nul doute que le promu Wolverhampton aurait préféré affronter les Spurs à un autre moment… Restant sur deux larges succès, la formation emmenée par Pochettino impressionne et son nouveau statut de dauphin illustre bien sa forme resplendissante. La fête pourrait bien se poursuivre contre l’actuel 10ème du classement, qui malgré une première partie de saison correcte, paraît encore trop juste pour aller se frotter aux mastodontes. Tottenham pourrait bien finir 2018 sur la deuxième place de la Premier League !
I will continue to make predictions on the Spur. They are now just on fire. They climbed to second place and now they are the main persecutors of Liverpool. Not sure if they are able to achieve victory in the EPL, but they will try to do it
