History of the Wolverhampton Wanderers v Norwich City fixture

Wolves prepare to entertain Norwich City at Molineux on Tuesday evening, with high hopes of improving on their excellent record against the opposition, having taken all the points from 19 of the 25 contests.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Molineux was just last season, in September 2007, with Wolves running out comfortable 2-0 winners in a Championship match.

Recent respective form guides

Wolverhampton Wanderers have only performed averagely at home, winning 3 and losing 2 of their last six. A total of 11 goals have been scored by the Wolves in those games, with 7 conceded.

The away form of Norwich City is pretty dire, managing a paltry 2 draws from the last six matches. While the Canaries have hit 4 goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Wolves are leading the way in the Coca-Cola Championship, with their 30 games giving them a return of 62 points. Norwich City are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 31 points from 30 matches.
