8 hours ago Matheus Cunha’s wizardry for revived Wolves spells trouble for Tottenham | Ben McAleer

Spurs’ defensive injury crisis spells danger when facing one of the Premier League’s most unpredictable forwards By Ben McAleer for WhoScoredDecember was always going to be a tough month for Ange Postecoglou and Tottenham. Spurs faced crunch domestic and continental meetings with the likes of Chelsea, Liverpool, Rangers and Bournemouth, and failed to win all four.

On paper, a meeting with a relegation-threatened side should pose little threat to Spurs. However, Wolves come into the weekend’s trip to the capital following back-to-back league wins over Leicester and Manchester United.
