Wolves have been handed a massive opportunity to pick up a result in Sunday’s match vs Spurs.
In a quick turnaround, Vitor Pereira is set to take charge of his third Wolves game on Sunday since he was appointed.
So far, the Portuguese manager has overseen two victories in two games which has lifted the side out of the Premier League relegation zone.
Boxing Day’s 2-0 win over Man United was particularly impressive as they limited the Red Devils to zero clear-cut chances.
Now, Pereira faces his biggest challenge so far as the club travels to London to take on Spurs.
However, Wolves have been handed a massive opportunity to pick up a result due to Tottenham’s dire injury record.
Tottenham are set to be without nine players for Sunday’s clash vs Wolves
Spurs are set to be without multiple stars for Sunday’s clash vs Wolves. The club have been in crisis in recent weeks with injuries continuing to pile up.
Their recent defeat to Nottingham Forest did not help matters as Radu Dragusin was forced off the pitch with an ankle injury.
MORE WOLVES STORIES
On top of this, Djed Spence is also unavailable after he was sent off vs Forest for two bookable offences.
The duo join Guglielmo Vicario, Christian Romero and Richarlison who are all set to be out for the clash due to their long-term injuries.
Micky van der Ven and Wilson Odobert also remain on the sidelines, while the game will likely come too early for Mikey Moore and Ben Davies.
Wolves have a massive opportunity to punish Spurs further
Spurs’ struggles with injuries have been well-documented throughout recent weeks. The club have won two of their last nine games, with their defence being considerably depleted.
Now, that even more players are out of action, it presents a chance for Wolves to inflict further misery on the capital side.
A victory could potentially move the Old Gold clear of the relegation zone and up to 15th.
It would prove to be a massive result for Pereira’s side given the difficult fixtures that are on the horizon.
