Wolverhampton – Tottenham: a desperate scrap at Molineux 
Molineux hosts a grim little Premier League showdown on Saturday. On one side, Wolves have officially kissed the top flight goodbye after a frustrating defeat earlier in the week. On the other, Tottenham arrive carrying a mountain of pressure. The London club are sliding fast and the drop zone is starting to look alarmingly close. This is a meeting between a side already down and a Spurs team who have not won a league game in 2026. It should be tense, ugly and nervy. The points are priceless for the visitors if they do not want to join their hosts on the way down.
The wounded pride of Wolves 
Relegation to the Championship is now confirmed for the West Midlands club. A brief show of defiance a few weeks ago was not enough, and the squad has finally cracked under the weight of one defeat after another. Edwards now has a busy treatment room to deal with, especially after Gomes and Krejci picked up injuries against Leeds. Even so, recent history suggests Wolves know how to irritate Spurs, and they are unbeaten in six straight meetings with the London side. In front of their own fans, they will want one last performance with some dignity before leaving the top level behind. The aim is simple: spoil the party for an opponent in deep trouble.
Tottenham’s slide into the abyss 
Things are getting serious for Tottenham under Roberto De Zerbi. The North London club are on a dismal run of 15 league games without a win, and that is nowhere near good enough for a club of their size. The late equaliser Brighton grabbed in their last match left Spurs just two points above the relegation zone. Confidence is shot, and the absences of key men like Vicario and Kulusevski are hardly helping. If Spurs fail to win on Saturday, they will match their worst ever run without a victory. Fear of relegation has frozen them up, and every touch now feels like it could decide their season.
Probable lineups
Wolverhampton : Bentley ; Tchatchoua, Toti, S. Bueno, H. Bueno ; J. Gomes, Andre, Mane ; Bellegarde, Armstrong, Hwang
Tottenham : Kinsky ; Porro, Danso, Van de Ven, Spence ; Bergvall, Bentancur, Gallagher ; Tel, Solanke, Simons
Football prediction Wolverhampton vs Tottenham
Wolverhampton or draw
Tottenham’s terrible form in 2026 makes an away win look highly unlikely in the current climate. The pressure on the Londoners could easily choke their attacking intent once again.
Even though Wolves are already relegated, they can play with freedom and still have the psychological edge over this opponent in recent years. Spurs remain shaky at the back and could be caught by quick breaks.
Another flat Tottenham display looks likely against a Wolves side who will want to bow out with their heads held high in front of their own supporters.

First, a note on our predictions
- What we publish on Mathodds is analysis, nothing more. We share an opinion, a read on the moment, but never a guarantee. Sport is still sport: unpredictable. A red card, an injury, a goal from nowhere… and the whole script changes.
- Let’s be clear: there is no such thing as a risk-free bet. Even when something looks obvious, it rarely is. And yes, that means you can lose. In fact, you will at some point.
- The smart move is to stay sensible. Bet small, set a budget and stick to it. Do not touch money you need to live. And whatever you do, do not chase losses. That usually ends badly.
- A bet should stay a game, not a job or a source of income. If it starts taking up too much space in your life, if it winds you up or puts you under pressure, take a break. And if needed, speak to a specialist service. That is what it is there for.
- At the end of the day, the responsibility is yours. Reading our content means accepting that risk exists and never goes away, even with the best analysis in the world.
- Important reminder: betting is forbidden for minors and must follow the laws of your country. Gambling can spiral quickly (money lost, family tension, addiction). Need Help? Call 1-800-GAMBLER. In the UK? Visit https://www.gambleaware.org/https://www.gambleaware.org/.

Information that changes
A prediction is always based on what we know at the time it is written. But between then and now, a team sheet changes, a player gets hurt, the weather turns… and the analysis can quickly be out of date. We cannot be held responsible for that.
