In what could prove to be a season-defining showdown for Tottenham on Saturday afternoon, Spurs will travel to Molineux when they meet a Wolves squad who have officially lost their Premier League status.
Wolves
Starting with the hosts, officially relinquishing their Premier League status earlier in the week, Wolves will be glad to see the back of what has been a record-breaking rut this season. Spending the whole of the 2025/26 campaign sat rock-bottom of the table, Rob Edwards’ side will simply be looking to hand their supporters some kind of boost on Saturday afternoon. Despite enjoying a minor turn in fortunes on either side of opening March, the former Middlesbrough boss has seen his squad come crashing back down to earth. Last seen falling to a routine 3-0 loss away at Leeds, Wolves have failed to win any of their previous four appearances across all competitions (three defeats, one draw). With their recent rut underlined by a nightmare 4-0 drumming at the hands of West Ham on April 10th, Edwards’ camp have also gained a reputation for their glaring defensive issues.
Wolves Team News
Limping off with a first-half knock away at Elland Road last weekend, Wolves are expected to be without Marseille loanee Angel Gomes here. Likewise, academy graduate Leon Chiwome remains on the sidelines with a long-term knee injury.
Shown what was a costly booking against West Ham earlier in the month, Colombian international Yerson Mosquera will serve the second game of his two-match suspension. Despite notching just a sole Premier League strike since completing a January switch from Southampton, Adam Armstrong will lead the line this weekend.
Tottenham
As for the visitors, suffering the most public of last-gasp heartbreak in north London last weekend as they eventually had to settle for a 2-2 stalemate against Brighton, Tottenham find themselves in the midst of an infamous relegation scrap. Travelling to the Midlands on Saturday afternoon sat two points adrift of Premier League safety, Spurs face what is certainly a must-win showdown at Molineux. Getting Robert De Zerbi’s tenure underway with a close-fought 1-0 defeat away at Sunderland earlier in the month, Tottenham have rightfully come under a huge amount of scrutiny. In fact, the Lilywhites have remarkably failed to register a single Premier League victory so far this calendar year. Shattering a string of unwanted records this season, Spurs have registered just four points since opening 2026.
Tottenham Team News
Suffering what was a season-ending knee injury away at Sunderland earlier in the month, Tottenham will once again be without club captain Cristian Romero. Likewise, dealing with a stacked injury list in north London, Spurs will be unable to call upon the likes of Mohamed Kudus, Ben Davies and Dejan Kulusevski here.
While James Maddison might have returned to Spurs’ bench last weekend, the England international is not expected to play any part on Saturday. Recording just a second Premier League strike of the season against Brighton last week, Xavi Simons could play a leading role in attack.
Wolves vs Tottenham Key Factors to Consider
- When Wolves and Tottenham met for their reverse Premier League showdown back on September 27th, Saturday’s opponents played out a 1-1 stalemate in north London.
- Spurs have failed to win any of their last six straight meetings against Wolves (four defeats, two draws).
- Tottenham have remarkably collected just four Premier League points since January 1st and they are still waiting to claim a maiden top-flight win in 2026.
- West Ham’s 0-0 stalemate away at Crystal Palace on Monday night officially confirmed Wolves’ relegation.
- Each of the last five meetings between Wolves and Tottenham have finished with both teams finding the net.
Conclusion
While Wolves might have officially lost their Premier League status earlier in the week, the shackles could be off on Saturday afternoon. Snatching a 1-1 stalemate when they travelled to north London back in September, the Old Gold hold a remarkable recent record. Including an action-packed 4-2 victory when they welcomed Spurs to the Midlands last season, they are unbeaten in all of their previous six straight Premier League showdowns against Tottenham. It should be noted, with each of the last five meetings between Saturday’s opponents finishing with both teams finding the net, we are backing a similar outcome at Molineux.
