Premier League Predictions: Wolves to Stun Man City

Below, our football betting expert Jones Knows provides his take on across the Premier League card as he goes bold, making a case for Wolves to beat Man City.

You can almost imagine Ange Postecoglou rocking in his chair over the international period, plotting on how to get a reaction out of his Tottenham players after their embarrassing collapse at Brighton. He even called it the “worst defeat” of his rein at Spurs, labeling the second-half performance “unacceptable.”

There’s little love lost between Spurs and West Ham, one of the biggest games of the season for the fanbase, so a reaction is expected. Another facet in which to try and profit from Postecoglou lighting a fire under the Spurs squad is the player tackles market.

Fulham are slowly but surely becoming a very shrewd defensive outfit for catching opposition players offside, particularly the strikers.

They are averaging 3.56 offsides against this term, with the likes of striking trifecta Chris Wood-4, Alexander Isak-2 and Jamie Vardy-3 being caught by their trap multiple times in one Premier League encounter. Watkins was flagged offside four times in the two meetings between the clubs last season so does have previous for straying beyond the Fulham line. Since the start of the 21/22 season, Watkins has been flagged offside 50 times working to an average of 0.46 offsides per game – a healthy strike rate. He is 5/2 with Sky Bet to be flagged at least twice.
