Who won, Tottenham or the Wolves?
The most recent answer came on 25 April 2026 at Molineux Stadium, where Joao Palhinha’s second-half strike handed Tottenham a narrow 1-0 victory. The match lived up to the tight margins these two sides typically produce—Wolves managed only 0.71 expected goals (xG) while Tottenham’s tally of 0.92 reflected a slightly more clinical edge, according to Flashscore match statistics.
Latest Match Stats
The fixture saw Wolves dominating the early stages but failing to convert their pressure into meaningful chances. Tottenham, despite lower possession (41% versus Wolves’ 59%), created the clearer opportunities. Both sides registered 11 total shots, underscoring the even nature of the contest.
Palhinha’s goal was the fifth time in nine Premier League meetings that the match was decided by a single goal—a trend that underlines how rarely either side manages to dominate the other.

Is Tottenham vs. Wolves on TV?
Premier League matches between these two clubs typically appear on broadcast schedules when the kickoff falls outside the blocked afternoon window. However, specific television rights and exact channel assignments for upcoming fixtures can shift based on the season’s scheduling deals.
How to Watch
UK viewers can check the official Premier League broadcast list or club websites for confirmed television coverage. International audiences should consult their regional sports rights holders or streaming platforms carrying Premier League rights.

Wolves vs Tottenham Results History
The earliest collision between these clubs dates to 1 September 1908, when Tottenham dispatched Wolves 3-0 in a Division Two fixture at White Hart Lane, according to Always Wolves historical records. That first meeting set the tone for a relationship that would later include cup finals and continental competition.
Recent Matches
The rivalry has produced memorable moments beyond the recent Palhinha strike. Wolves claimed a 3-1 victory in one notable encounter, while a 2-1 result in Wolves’ favour has also featured prominently in their recent competitive history. The 2026 defeat marks just one chapter in an ongoing story of closely contested matches.

- 1908: Tottenham 3-0 Wolves (first meeting, Division Two)
- 1921: Tottenham win over Wolves in FA Cup Final
- 1971/72: Tottenham 3-2 aggregate win in UEFA Cup Final
- 2026: Wolves 0-1 Tottenham, Joao Palhinha scores

Wolverhampton Wanderers FC vs Tottenham Prediction
Both clubs enter this fixture fighting survival battles rather than chasing European dreams. Wolves sit 20th while Tottenham occupy 18th, making their head-to-head clashes as much about momentum as historical bragging rights.
Form Analysis
Tottenham’s last five Premier League results read W2 L3 with 0.8 goals scored and 1.6 conceded per match, according to AiScore recent form data. Wolves have been marginally better at W3 D1 L1, averaging 1.2 goals scored but shipping 1.6 against.
Key Stats Preview
The attacking efficiency gap is notable: Tottenham have been roughly 30% better at scoring goals away from home in this fixture (1.38 goals per match) compared to Wolves’ home output of 1.06, per FootyStats comparison analysis. Yet Wolves’ 41% home win rate across 22 recent meetings suggests they remain dangerous on their own turf.
Betting on goals rather than a winner aligns better with the data: 77% over 1.5 and 64% both-teams-score percentages offer more consistent returns than picking an outright victor in this lopsidedly even rivalry.
Head-to-Head Comparison
Three key metrics reveal the contours of this fixture’s history.
| Metric | Tottenham | Wolves |
|---|---|---|
| All-time wins | 53 | 34 |
| Premier League wins | 9 | 9 |
| Goals (recent 22 matches) | 31 | 33 |
The implication: Tottenham’s historical edge comes from cup competitions and earlier eras, while Premier League meetings have been remarkably evenly split.
