Writers Predictions League: Spurs vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers

Tottenham is in second place in the middle of January. The last time that happened... well, I'm pretty sure I wasn't born yet. A midweek win over Everton has put Tottenham even on points with Manchester United and just three points behind Manchester City. With United and City not having the most difficult matches in Bolton home and Wigan away, respectively, the emphasis will be on Spurs keeping pace in the title race.

In the way this weekend though is a tough task in a stubborn Wolverhampton Wanderers side. Wolves have been in mediocre form, but have still been able to keep earning draws. Steven Fletcher continues to carry the goal scoring responsibility for Wolves, while Welsh keeper Wayne Hennessey has been the bastion of the Wolves defense. Manager Mick McCarthy is starting to feel the pressure at Molineux, but the arrival of Arsenal's Emmanuel Frimpong has seemed to add some bite to the Wolves central midfield.

The Writers Prediction League continues. Ryan was perfect again, as his lead continues to grow. The rules remain--one point for a correct prediction, a bonus point for getting the score correct. Here are the current standings:
