LiontipsWolverhampton vs Tottenham. Prediction and Betting Tips for English Premier League (August 22, 2021).
Command Analysis
Wolverhampton had a poor 2020/2021 season. The Wolves won only 12 games out of 38 and also drew 9 times. With 45 points, they finished in 13th place.
The club lost the last three fixtures, and before that won over Brighton (2:1). The Wolves attack was the weakest link in their game: on average, they scored less than one goal per game.
But this season the attack was strengthened by Trincao, who was bought from Barcelona. Wolverhampton also signed Rayan Aït-Nouri from Angers (11.1 million), Jose Sa from Olympiacos (8 million), and Yerson Mosquera from Nacional (5.2 million).
In the first of the Premier League, the Wolves lost to Leicester away (0:1).
Boly, Podence, Neto, Jonny, Otasowie are sidelined with different injuries.
Tottenham had a lot on their plate last season, including many key players' injuries, so they were inconsistent in their Premier League performance. The North Londoners won 18 games out of 38 and drew 8 times. This brought them 62 points and 7th place in the table.
The Spurs finished on a happy note: three victories in a row over Sheffield United (4:0), Wolverhampton (2:0), and Leicester (4:2). Harry Kane was the team's top scorer with 23 goals. Overall, this result didn't satisfy the Spurs, but it brought them a ticket to the Conference League. Last week, Tottenham played their first game in the Conference League, but the debut wasn't a success: they lost away to Pacos de Ferreira.
In the summer, the Spurs hired Nuno Espirito Santo as the new manager. They also bought some great players: Bryan Gilfrom Sevilla, Cristian Romero and Pierluigi Gollini from Atalanta.
Tottenham had an amazing start to the season. In the first round, they defeated the reigning champions Manchester City with a score of 1:0.
Kane, Ndombele, Carter-Vickers,andRomeroare unable to play in this fixture.

Tip and bets
Wolverhampton are well prepared for the season and showed that in the first round. But we don't think that they can defeat Tottenham. Sure, the Londoners lost in Portugal, but they actually looked better than their opponents. We think they can beat the Wolves on class.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (0) to Tottenham
The visitors will try to save strength for the second leg against Pacos de Ferreira next week. The hosts won't risk playing open football against such a powerful opponent. That's why we believe that the clubs will not overcome the total of 2.5 goals.
Second bet - total under 2.5 goals.
