History of the Wolverhampton Wanderers v Leicester City fixture

Wolves prepare to entertain Leicester City at Molineux on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Wolves are clearly on top, having won 24 and lost only 10 of the 47 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Molineux was less than a year ago, in May 2003, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a League Division One match.

Recent respective form guides

Wolverhampton Wanderers have only performed averagely at home, winning 3 and losing 2 of their last six. While Wolves have scored 5, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.

The away form of Leicester is pretty dire, collecting just 1 solitary point from the last six. While the Foxes have hit 5 goals, 12 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Wolves are stuck down in the relegation zone of Barclaycard Premiership with a return of just 6 points from their 9 games thus far. Leicester find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 9 games have yielded only 5 points.
