History of the Wolverhampton Wanderers v Brighton & Hove Albion fixture

Wolves are ready to welcome Brighton & Hove Albion to Molineux on Tuesday evening, determined to stop the rot against their opponents, having lost out to their rivals on 6 of the previous 8 occassions.

The previous match played between the two at Molineux was within the last three years, in November 2002, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a League Division One match.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Its a close one to call, but I think that Wolves's reasonable showing at home is going to see them scrape past Brighton & HA. Home Win
