Darren Bent has now predicted the result of Tottenham vs Wolves

Wolves take on Spurs, looking for their first league points of the season, but the odds appear stacked against them.

The Old Gold have endured a difficult start, and the majority of pundits believe Tottenham will have the upper hand.

Wolves legend Steve Bull has urged his former side to prove they are a good team and secure a positive result.

Meanwhile, Ray Parlour predicts Wolves will at least find the net against Spurs, but still come up short at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The pressure is now firmly on Vitor Pereira and his players to deliver after five straight league defeats.

Darren Bent predicts Tottenham to dominate Wolves

Wolves are looking to avoid setting another unwanted record by becoming the first team to be losing at half-time in ten consecutive Premier League matches.

The Old Gold’s defensive frailties have been exposed all season, and Spurs’ attacking quality could ruthlessly punish them.

Last season, Jorgen Strand Larsen helped Wolves earn a 2-2 draw at Tottenham, while in the reverse fixture at Molineux the Old Gold beat Spurs 4-2.

Despite these recent results, Bent believes Tottenham will be the dominant side in this encounter.

Speaking on TalkSport, he said: “Yeah, I think Tottenham will win 3-0.”

Wolves desperate to prove doubters wrong

With predictions and criticism mounting, Wolves will be desperate to use this negativity as fuel.

The players need to produce a spirited performance to regain the fans’ trust and confidence.

Spurs will have pressure on them, due to them being the home side, but the Old Gold’s poor start has made delivering a result essential.

Pereira won’t need to motivate his players further as pundits are already doing that.

The 57-year-old’s primary focus will be setting up his team tactically to maximise their chances of securing a first league win.
