West Bromwich Albion-Tottenham Hotspur betting preview

This is a crucial match for both the teams. For West Brom, it is crucial for survival, and for Spurs, it is crucial for year-end glory. West Brom are five points away from the Premier League relegation zone. With some of lower-ranked teams performing well of late, they must garner some points from their remaining home games to feel safe.

 

Tottenham are sixth at the moment, two points clear of Manchester United. They need to maintain the status for at least grab a Europa League slot for the next season.

 

Spurs have lost all their previous three away fixtures. Admittedly, the matches were against Liverpool, Chelsea and Norwich. While West Brom don't offer the same kind of threat as Liverpool or Chelsea do, they can surely do better than Norwich.

 

What will motivate them is that fact that they have an excellent H2H record against West Brom: four wins and four draws in the last eight matches. West Brom, on their part, has done reasonably well when faced with the relegation threat. The team has lost just two of their last seven fixtures and gained nine points from these matches. They will hope to get at least a point from this match too.

 

If they are to get something out of this match, Morgan Amalfitano and Saido Berahino will have to fire on all cylinders. Chris Brunt’s injury still haunts the team.

 

Emmanuel Adebayor, Christian Eriksen and Paulinho are likely to start for Spurs, as Roberto Soldado is injured.
