Premier League on Sky Sports: Tottenham vs Wolves preview and betting tips
Saturday, September 27, the Premier League’s late night kick-off takes place in North London as Tottenham welcome Wolves to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
With both teams heading into Gameweek six under very different pressures, this could be a deceptively tricky test for the home side.
Sports News Blitz previews Tottenham vs Wolves, with betting tips and statistics.
The tale so far
Tottenham’s perfect start to the Premier League season came to an abrupt halt with a 2-0 home defeat to Bournemouth, but they bounced back quickly with a composed win away at West Ham following the international break.
A chaotic 2-2 draw with Brighton in their last outing, sealed by a late own goal - keeps them firmly in the early top-four conversation.
Manager Thomas Frank, overseeing his first European campaign with Spurs, also saw his side begin their UEFA Champions League journey with a 1-0 win over Villarreal.
While not flawless, there’s clear momentum under new leadership in North London.
Wolves, by contrast, are still searching for their first point of the season.
Five defeats from five leaves Vítor Pereira’s side bottom of the table and under growing pressure.
A 3-1 loss to newly-promoted Leeds last weekend did little to ease concerns around Molineux.
Yet history gives Wolves some hope. They’ve beaten Spurs in five of their last seven meetings - a record that suggests this match may not be as straightforward as the form table suggests.
Head-to-head recap
Recent history heavily favours Wolves, who have won five of their last six meetings with Spurs.
That includes a dramatic 4-2 win at Molineux last April and three consecutive Premier League victories before that.
The most recent clash, a 2-2 draw last December - was one of the few times Spurs managed to avoid defeat in this fixture.
Despite Wolves’ current struggles, they’ve consistently found a way to frustrate the North London side.

Best bets for Tottenham vs Wolves
Tottenham to win
Wolves are winless in the league and have conceded the second-highest number of goals in the division.
Spurs, by contrast, are unbeaten in three matches across all competitions and sit joint-second in the Premier League table.
Despite Wolves’ recent head-to-head success, current form points firmly toward a home win.
Richarlison to score or assist
The Brazilian forward has made a lively start to the campaign, with three goals and one assist already in the Premier League.
He’s expected to start again on Saturday evening and looks like one of the main attacking threats in this Spurs side.
Both teams to score
This selection has landed in four of the last five meetings between these two.
While Wolves’ current form might not inspire confidence, their historical success against Tottenham suggests they’ll create chances, even if they end up on the losing side.

The verdict
Tottenham look the stronger side on paper and on current form, but Wolves’ recent record in this fixture is impossible to ignore.
If Pereira’s side can rediscover some of that fight, they might make a game of it - though Spurs’ superior attacking options should ultimately tip the balance.
It may not be as comfortable as the table suggests, but the hosts should still find a way to take the points.
