Wolverhampton Wanderers Aim to Consolidate Top Half Finish with Win Over Norwich City
2764

There are seven fixtures to be played in the English Premier League on Sunday the 15th of May including the meeting between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Norwich City.

The hosts begin the weekend in 8th place on 50 points while the visitors are bottom of the table on 21 points.

Wolves come into the match on the back of a disappointing 5-1 loss at the hands of Manchester City on the weekend.

Having conceded an early goal, Wolves struck back quickly with an equaliser but the game quickly got away from them in the first half. Wolves conceded 2 more goals in the second half to lose the match.

That result means Wolves have failed to win any of their 5 most recent Premier League fixtures. In addition to the defeat against Manchester City, Wolves have lost to Newcastle United and Burnley away plus Brighton and Hove Albion at home. However, Wolves did pick up a good point in a 2-2 draw at Chelsea.

Wolves have been struggling to win recent home Premier League matches and they have lost 3 of their last 4 at Molineux Stadium.

Conceding goals has been a problem for Wolves and they have conceded a total of 12 goals in their last 4 home Premier League games at an average of 3 goals per game. However, Wolves have found the back of the net in 4 of their last 5 home league matches.

Norwich City make the trip to Molineux Stadium having previously lost 3-0 at Leicester City. The Canaries have already been relegated from the Premier League and they are limping back to the Championship having lost each of their last 5 league games.

There have been defeats at home against Newcastle United and West Ham United plus losses at Manchester United, Aston Villa, and Leicester City.

Away form in the Premier League shows Norwich City have failed to win any of their last 8 games on the road. They have lost 7 of those 8 matches and have been struggling to score goals, finding the back of the net in only 1 in their 4 most recent away trips.

Conceding goals has also been a problem for Norwich City and they have conceded 2 or more goals in 7 of their last 8 away Premier League fixtures.

Team news and Wolves are without the injured duo of Nélson Semedo and Max Kilman. They also have doubts over the fitness of Romain Saiss and Daniel Podence.

Norwich City have a significant injury list, with Mathias Normann, Josh Sargent, Christoph Zimmermann, Kenny McLean, Ozan Kabak, Adam Idah, and Andrew Omobamidele all unavailable.

Wolves have not been in great form but should still have more than enough to beat relegated Norwich City. This should be a comfortable afternoon at the office for Wolves and we expect them to score a few goals and keep a clean sheet on their way to victory.
