There are two matches to be played in the English Premier League on Sunday the 20th of February including the meeting between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Leicester City.
The game will be played at Molineux Stadium and the hosts begin the weekend in 7th place on 37 points while the visitors are in 11th place on 27 points.
Wolves come into the match on the back of an excellent 2-0 win at Tottenham Hotspur last weekend. It took Wolves only 6 minutes to open the scoring and they added a second goal only 12 minutes later.
Wolves defended well for the remainder of the game and prevented Spurs from getting back into the match.
It was a return to winning ways for Wolves who had lost their previous two fixtures in all competitions. They were eliminated from the FA Cup thanks to a disappointing 1-0 loss at Norwich City and fell to a 1-0 defeat at home to Arsenal in the Premier League.
Wolves have been difficult to beat in recent Premier League fixtures and they are undefeated in 6 of their last 7 league matches.
However, they have been struggling to win home Premier League games and have picked up just 1 win from their 5 most recent league matches on home soil.
Trends show Wolves have seen under 2.5 goals in their last 3 games in all competitions and in 4 of their last 6 at home in the Premier League.
Leicester City make the trip to Molineux Stadium having been held to a 2-2 draw at home by West Ham United in the Premier League on the weekend.
The Foxes came back from the concession of an early goal to take the lead in the 57th minute and will be disappointed to have conceded an equaliser at the end of the game.
That result means Leicester City have failed to win any of their 5 most recent matches in all competitions. They lost at home against Tottenham Hotspur and away to Liverpool in the Premier League plus were eliminated from the FA Cup by Nottingham Forest. Leicester City were also held to a 1-1 draw at home by Brighton in the league.
Trends show Leicester City have suffered 3 away defeats in succession by 2 or more goals in all competitions.
Team news and Wolves are expected to be without the injured trio of Willy Boly, Yerson Mosquera, and Pedro Neto. They also have doubts over the fitness of Joao Moutinho.
Leicester City could be without up to five players as James Justin, Timothy Castagne, Jamie Vardy, Ryan Bertrand, and Jonny Evans are all on the treatment table.
Wolves have not seen many goals in recent games and they have failed to find the back of the net in 5 of their last 7 home league matches. That suggests we are going to see few goals in this game and it could end 0-0.
