Tottenham have a worrying record vs Wolves and the last three results at Molineux are ominous

Tottenham Hotspur face a defining afternoon at Molineux as they look to secure a vital three points in their fight against the drop, but a concerning historical trend against Wolves suggests that Roberto De Zerbi and his players may face a far tougher task than the league table implies.

The stage is set for Tottenham Hotspur this weekend as they take on already relegated Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux.

This fixture affords Spurs the best opportunity to grab their first win in 2026 and bolster their chances of survival with only five games left to play in a season that has been largely underwhelming for the North London club.

It is a crucial clash for the Lilywhites, who could end the matchweek outside the relegation places with a victory over the men led by Rob Edwards.

This scenario, however, depends on West Ham United failing to secure a win in their own encounter against Everton, meaning that the stakes for the travelling side could not be much higher as they look to maintain their Premier League status.

Tottenham’s record vs Wolves raises concern ahead of fixture

While supporters might be fancying their chances this weekend after watching their side put in a strong display against an in-form Brighton and Hove Albion side, they might want to consider their prospects after looking at the record of Spurs against Wolves.

Earlier this season, when the two sides last met, the game ended in a draw, but it was the West Midlands club who were in front for most of the match before Joao Palhinha struck late to ensure the spoils were shared.

A lot has changed since that encounter for both sides, with the fate of Wolves already sealed and Tottenham now sitting in the bottom three.

However, the head-to-head record in the last ten outings between the two sides favours the home side, who have avoided defeat against Spurs seven times in that period, with Tottenham winning just three of the last ten meetings.

To make matters worse for those travelling from North London, one will have to go back to the 22/23 season for the most recent time that Tottenham beat Wolves.

The Lilywhites also managed victories during the 20/21 season and the 21/22 campaign, but successes have been few and far between in recent years.

Spurs away record at Molineux highlights further concern

The record for Tottenham at Molineux is far from encouraging as they prepare for the journey this weekend.

Spurs remain without a victory at the stadium in their last three meetings, having lost their last three games on the home turf of Wolves, a run that Roberto De Zerbi will be desperate to halt.

However, looking further into the history books, Spurs do possess a better head-to-head record in their last ten trips to Molineux, having secured four victories during that time period.

This historical perspective suggests that the North London side is capable of taking maximum points away from the West Midlands.
