Tottenham v Swansea Betting Preview – Premier League 3rd December
Now that Swansea have finally landed their first win under the guidance of Bob Bradley, will they be able to push on and use that momentum to start climbing out of the drop zone? That’s still a big ask and this is a tough game for them out on the road at Tottenham. But the form of Tottenham has slumped dramatically with just three wins in their last ten games across all competitions and they lost their first league game of the season last weekend when they were beaten by Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Can the Lilywhites pull their socks up and dig out a win in this one against a side who have been struggling right from the off this season? Or can the Welsh outfit perhaps grind out what would be a highly valuable point?

Tottenham v Swansea Betting Tips
Well, Tottenham surely have to get out of their slump in form sooner or later won’t they? The Lilywhites have gone W1 D4 L1 in their last six Premier League games now and have fallen a bit flat due to a lack of ruthlessness. They have some setbacks lately which will have hit their confidence, like their exit from the UEFA Champions League group stage and having had their unbeaten form from the start of the Premier League season snapped as they suffered a 2-1 loss at Stamford Bridge last weekend. So what about their overall form? Well it reads just the three wins in their last ten games across all competitions and they are struggling to get back to where they should be. However, this looks like a good opportunity for them to do so as they have good form against the Swans and have gone W9 D2 since their last defeat against them in any competition back in September 1991. They are unbeaten in ten premier League games against them (W8 D2).
So the Lilywhites could be alright in his one and Mauricio Pochettino as a manager in unbeaten against Swansea in the Premier League. So a good chance at a much welcome three points for Tottenham in this one. Harry Kane has made a cracking return from injury and he has shown how much they missed him while he was gone and he is trading at a price of 4/5 with Sky Bet in the anytime goalscorer market. Of their six home matches this season in the Premier League, Tottenham have claimed three clean sheets and a Spurs TO Win To Nil wager will return a price of 13/10 which may offer some value. Then in the Correct Score market, assuming a clean sheet for the home side, a Tottenham 2-0 option is a price of 13/2 and 1-0 is a 9/1 shot. You also have a both teams not score option for a price of 10/11 as well.
So Swansea are looking for their first ever Premier League win over Tottenham. Despite not having beaten the Lilywhites yet, they have scored in eight of their ten previous games against Spurs in the competition. Swansea earned Bob Bradley his first win as manager in the English top flight last weekend with that crazy 5-4 win over Crystal Palace. This is a much different ask for them though against a good defense though. Former Spurs midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson has scored in two of his three Premier League games at White Hart Lane for Swansea and the midfield man is a price of 11/4 in the anytime goalscorer market with Fernando Llorente at 11/4. Away from the Liberty Stadium this season, the Swans have gone W1 D1 L4 out on the road this season and are winless in their last five. Swansea’s last two trips to White Hart Lane have seen the Welsh club lose by one goal only, and a Tottenham to win by a one goal margin at Sky Bet is a price of 3/1 for Saturday’s fixture. A tough game for Swansea, even with the confidence of bagging a win last weekend.

Tottenham v Swansea Predictions
Tottenham’s confidence has to be pretty low at the moment as they just can’t seem to get over the line in matches. They have been strong enough at home though this season, winning four of six, to be expected to put down the Swans. A win over a shaky Crystal Palace defence isn’t the light at the end of the tunnel for the Welsh club and they are likely to fall back to a defeat in this one. Look for a low scoring game though under 2.5 goals, but for Tottenham to get across the line. A 2-0 Spurs correct score has some appeal.
