Tottenham Hotspur - West Bromwich Albion betting tips and odds

With the odds set at 1.40 for a home win, Tottenham Hotspur winning is clearly the most likely outcome in this matchup. Bigger upsets have happened, of course, but we wouldn’t expect anything but a decisive home win.

With a price of 9.50 on an away win among most online sportsbooks, it’s clear West Bromwich Albion will likely not fare well against Spurs. Even a draw seems to be too optimistic for the away team.

Spurs’s latest Premier League performance against Chelsea can’t be called disappointing, even if it did result in a narrow 0:1 home loss. After all, their opposition was much stronger, and the odds on a home win were priced at 4.20 with top online bookmakers.

WBA somehow managed to snatch an early lead against Sheffield United in the previous round, despite being heavily outmatched. They couldn’t hold on to the lead in the second half, however, resulting in a 2:1 away loss.

The home team is here on the back of two consecutive matches in which fewer than 2 goals were scored in total. That’s not the kind of trend you want to be on, though it does display a kind of consistency.

It’s easy to spot a certain trend when looking over WBA’s recent history – and not in a good way. Their latest appearances were marked by a high concession rate. For example, their previous 3 matches featured more than 5 conceded goals.

Though Spurs are in the upper half of the Premier League table, they’re 5 points behind European places. Current state of affairs is not exactly what we’d consider a success. However, their fans are hoping that the showdown against The Baggies will be a step in the right direction.

The Baggies will need to make a hard turn to avoid disaster this season, and they’ll need to do it soon. Though there’s a good chunk of the season still ahead of them, the upcoming matchups are not exactly favourable.

Looking over the head-to-head statistics for this Premier League season, the hosts already recorded a victory over The Baggies. This puts them ahead of their opponents, which is reflected in the betting odds.

Though the odds are against the visitors, at least they’ll be in a position to put up as much of a fight as possible. All of their lineup is accounted for in this match, with no issues from suspensions or injuries.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 1.73 if you use the bet365 sportsbook.
