Wolves v Tottenham LIVE: Score and updates as Spurs face decisive test in Premier League survival bid

The corners are coming thick and fast for Spurs now. Simons to whip it on from the right, finds Porro on the edge… But that is shanked high and wide on the volley! Sarcastic jeers ring round the ground

Beckham to Scholes, that was not…

Kolo Muani strides forward again and lashes a shot goalwards from 20 yards out but it flies comfortably wide. Spurs have stamped out any early threat from Wolves and are in control here but still hunting that opening goal

Kolo Muani runs at Toti and tests out the Wolves defender, who does well to hook a leg round and hook the ball out for a corner.

The cross is deep but the ref blows for a foul, deeming Gallagher to have been too physical in his jostling.

Spurs on top now. They win a corner, Simons goes short to Porro who clips it in but Sa able to punch clear. Effective, if not completely conventional

Free-kick for Wolves, out towards the right and Porro swings it in. Good header by Danso on the far side, powered across goal, and just beyond Solanke as it bounces wide.

Solanke claims he was pushed and wants a penalty but that’s optimistic to say the least…

Early touch for Jose Sa, who is back in goal for Wolves after injury. The hosts stroking the ball about nicely in the opening couple of minutes, although Spurs are pressing high trying to force a mistake

Underway at a glorious, sun-baked Molineux. A huge day for Spurs. We really have reached must-win territory. Let’s get it

With a couple of minutes until kick-off, here’s a reminder of the team news.

Spence in for Udogie at left-back for Spurs, while Wolves make five changes with Sa, Lima, Doherty, Rodrigo Gomes and MAne in.

Wolves XI: Sa; Lima, Doherty, S Bueno, Toti, H Bueno; Andre, J Gomes, R Gomes; Mane, Armstrong

Tottenham XI: Kinsky; Porro, Danso, Van de Ven, Spence; Bissouma, Bentancur, Gallagher; Kolo Muani, Solanke, Simons

Where to pick up points? At the moment, Spurs can’t pick up a win from anywhere… They haven’t won for 16 league matches, with their last Premier League triumph coming against Crystal Palace back in December. Spurs looked set to end that miserable run after Xavi Simons fired the hosts ahead against Brighton last Saturday but Georginio Rutter struck at the death to deny Roberto de Zerbi’s side. On paper, a game away to Wolves this afternoon has to end up with three points, and a potentially pivotal clash with Leeds at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium three matches from the end of the campaign is also a golden opportunity. But every fixture is tough currently.

Tricky contests? Sidestepping the obvious quip of ‘every single one’, given their recent form, away games at Champions League-chasing Aston Villa and Chelsea in May don’t look too fruitful.

Final straight? Leeds at home as the third-last game is absolutely huge. Should that game go awry and Spurs head into the final two matches in the relegation zone, then a trip to Stamford Bridge and clash with Everton to finish up appear unlikely to provide succour.
