Tottenham Hotspur

Tottenham will look to continue their unbeaten start to the season when they host struggling Wolves this Saturday in the early kick-off game of Game-Week three of the 2022/23 Premier League season.

Antonio Conte’s side played out an entertaining 2-2 draw with Chelsea last weekend. In a game that was marred by the heated post-match exchange between Conte and Thomas Tuchel, Tottenham came from behind twice to draw the game, with goals from Pierre-Emile Hogberg and Harry Kane cancelling out goals from Kalidou Koulibaly and Reece James. 

The result extended Tottenham’s unbeaten run in the Premier League to eight games, with five wins and three draws in that period.

The win was also their fourth consecutive win and keeps them within the current top four. Having qualified for the Champions League this season, thanks to a fourth-placed finish last season, the goal for this season will be to challenge for the title, something Conte has admitted his side are looking to do.

Having been sent off in the game against Chelsea, Conte will not be available for this tie. 

Possible Tottenham starting line-up

Hugo Lloris; Cristian Romero, Eric Dier, Clement Lenglet; Ivan Perisic, Rodrigo Bentancur, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Matt Doherty; Dejan Kulusevski, Harry Kane, Heung-Min Son.

Injured: Joe Bryan, Harry Wilson, Manor Solomon 

Doubtful: None 

Suspended: None 

Wolves 

Wolves will look to get their first win of the season when they travel to London on Saturday.

The visitors have endured a poor start to the new season amid the stagnation in the transfer market that has left manager Bruno Lage frustrated. They come into this tie on the back of a disappointing 0-0 draw with Fulham at home.

The result extended their winless run to nine league games–their longest winless streak in the league since returning to the top flight in 2018/19. 

They will be desperate to win this game as they battle to keep their Premier League status for another season alive. 

Possible Wolves starting line-up

Jose Sa; Jonathan Castro, Nathan Collins, Max Kilman, Rayan Ait-Nouri; Ruben Neves, Leander Dendoncker; Pedro Neto, Daniel Podence, Morgan Gibbs-White; Hee Chan-Hwang.

Injured: Raul Jimenez, Chiquinho, João Moutinho 

Doubtful: None 

Suspended: None 

Prediction

Tottenham 2-0 Wolves
