Tottenham Hotspur vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers: game time, TV channels, how to watch

For the second time in Jose Mourinho’s short time in charge, Tottenham Hotspur had a chance to jump into the top four by beating Chelsea. On both occasions, the manager fell short against his old club, leaving his new side on the outside looking in. Spurs recovered from the first defeat to get back to the cusp of the top four and will now have to do it again.

Chelsea has dropped points against weaker sides — including a draw against Bournemouth on Saturday — and that is where Tottenham will have to thrive. The domestic schedule should not be too bad down the stretch, so everything is still to play for. However, a Sunday match against Wolverhampton Wanderers is not the best way to follow up a disappointing week against Chelsea and then RB Leipzig in the Champions League.

Wolves are a legitimate threat this season and sit just one point behind Tottenham. In December Spurs were extremely fortunate to escape the Molineux with three points, getting a late header from Jan Vertonghen to snag the lead. If they are to win this weekend, it will likely be due to another close call that sees the team patch something together.

Mourihno is without attackers, but this is simply the reality for the next three months. He has no choice but to figure out a formation that will work and find a way to earn enough points in the league. Top five very well may be good enough to make the Champions League next season, but until that is made official, the goal has to be passing Chelsea for fourth place. That means the month of March has to be very productive.
