S.P. Read Esq: Swansea v Spurs

Our daily columnist and pundit S.P. Read Esq. looks ahead to Tuesday’s Premier League match between SWANSEA v SPURS and finds the best opportunities available on Star Spreads, the home of sports spread betting.

Carlos Carvalhal made the perfect start as Swansea’s new manager with a last gap win over Watford but if he going to become the new Harry Houdini then a few more escape acts are needed.

Swansea are by no means condemned yet (although they are 1/4 for the drop with Star Sports) – the bottom of the table is very compact and if they can pull off the shock win tonight then they could leap from the bottom of the table past West Ham and West Brom and feel a lot more positive about their plight.

Carvalhal said: “Before the [Watford] game if you asked 100 people if Swansea will be relegated, 100 people would say Swansea will be relegated.

“Now 98 people will be saying it, and maybe two people are saying maybe they will not. But it is still a small percentage, we are still not in a good position.

“But the confidence is higher now and the belief is higher. Me, the players, the chairman and the fans are not in the 100 – we believe we can stay up.”

Three points tonight though will be easier said than done against a Spurs side who are knocking in goals for fun – 19 goals from their last six matches.

Harry Kane is expected to play, despite a heavy cold which would be further bad news for the hosts who will be without full-back Kyle Naughton who starts a three-match ban for his stamp on Watford’s Stefano Okaka.

I’ll take a chance that Swansea can continue their momentum from Saturday and get a goal ahead of 68 minutes – the level I am selling the first Swansea goal at on Star Spreads.
