Wednesday’s Premier League Player Fouls Tips
Tarkowski has committed 22 fouls across his 19 Premier League appearances this season (1.16 per 90). The centre back tends to be the more aggressive of Everton’s backline pairing with Branthwaite’s superior speed making him a good option to cover space in behind when Tarkowski pushes up the pitch.
He’ll be up against Ollie Watkins who has posted steady foul committed and foul won numbers this campaign, the striker is averaging 1.58 fouls won per 90 and 1.31 fouls committed per 90 across his 20 Premier League appearances this season suggesting that he often ends up in a physical tussle with the opposition centre backs, Tarkowski could also struggle with Watkins’ mobility offering a different challenge to a traditional number 9.
Tarkowski contested 8 duels and made the most tackles of any player (3) in Everton’s 3-2 defeat at Villa Park earlier in the season. We should see similar numbers in his underlying stats in this game with the centre back well placed to commit at least 1 foul against a dangerous Ollie Watkins.
Lewis Hall has been one of the most consistent left backs in the Premier League this season, Eddie Howe has utilised former Chelsea duo Hall and Livramento in the fullback positions expertly with both instructed to support the attack and make runs in behind the opposition backline to create more space for a very talented midfield.
This role has seen Hall create 27 chances (1.53 per 90) and win 17 fouls (0.96 per 90). He’s growing with confidence every week and should have plenty of opportunity to push forward against a Wolves side who were defeated by Newcastle 2-1 earlier in the season with Wolves committing 17 fouls and Hall contesting 13 duels.
Hall is expected to line up against 18 year old Pedro Lima with Nelson Semedo a injury doubt for this fixture, Lima hasn’t had much exposure to the Premier League and could find himself struggling with the increase in pace and intensity which should see him caught out on a few occasions, especially with Hall’s runs beyond the backline.
Radu Dragusin has been forced to partner with an out of position Archie Gray for a few months now due to injuries to Micky Van De Ven and Cristian Romero leaving Tottenham very light in defensive areas.
As a result of this unconventional partnership, Dragusin is tasked with dictating and directing the Spurs backline as the more senior and experienced of the duo. He’s committed 6 fouls across his 13 Premier League appearances this season (0.53 per 90).
Whilst these numbers aren’t particularly standout, we can expect them to increase in the context of the game with it being a North London Derby and when considering Dragusin’s opponent in Kai Havertz. Havertz has won 17 fouls across his 17 Premier League appearances this season (1.03 per 90). Dragusin didn’t feature in the initial meeting between these sides but both Romero and Van De Ven committed a foul and Havertz was involved in 21 duels.
The contest between Saliba and Solanke will be a key one in this North London Derby, both players were embroiled in a physical battle when the sides met earlier on in the season, a contest that Arsenal edged with a Gabriel winner.
Saliba committed 2 fouls from 8 duels in the meeting at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium earlier in the season, Solanke’s ability to hold up the ball and also offer a threat in behind caused problems for Saliba who is usually so composed. Saliba has committed 16 fouls across his 19 Premier League appearances this season (0.87 per 90), a marked increase on his average of 0.58 fouls committed per 90 last season – perhaps linking to an increase in defensive workload due to Arsenal struggling for balance and consistency this campaign ahead of a solid centre back pairing in Saliba and Gabriel.
Solanke can really harass centre backs and is a handful in phases of play away from the penalty area. He’s won 24 fouls across his 17 Premier League appearances this season (1.43 per 90) and enters this fixture with plenty of momentum with 8 goal contributions across his last 10 appearances in all competitions.
Pedro Porro has won 18 fouls across his 20 Premier League appearances this season, 17 of these have been starts taking his average to 1.00 fouls won per 90. The fullback is given licence to push very high up the pitch and has impressed in recent weeks with his pinpoint delivery into the area.
He showcased this ability in Tottenham’s 1-0 defeat to Arsenal earlier in the season where he created 4 chances and was fouled twice, also contesting 12 duels. No player was fouled more than Pedro Porro in the contest.
He’ll fancy his chances of taking the fight to Arsenal with Gabriel Martinelli and Miles Lewis-Skelly expected to be his opponents. The pair combine for 1.35 fouls committed per 90 in the Premier League this season. Porro should continue with his positive approach and find himself hauled down at least once in this derby.
