The English Premier League resumes on Saturday with several games to enjoy including the meeting between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Brighton and Hove Albion. The match will be played at Molineux Stadium and will have an impact at both ends of the Premier League table.
Wolverhampton Wanderers come into the game in 6th place on 42 points. They are currently 3 points behind Chelsea who currently occupy the 4th Champions League qualifying position. Brighton and Hove Albion are down in 15th place on 28 points and that leaves them just one point clear of the relegation zone.
Wolverhampton Wanderers were forced to come from behind twice in their match last weekend at Tottenham Hotspur. However, Nuno Espírito Santo’s team showed great spirit as they eventually won the match 3-2. That result means they have lost only one of their last 6 games in all competitions and that came in the second leg of the Europa League round of 32 against Espanyol.
Wolverhampton Wanderers had already won the first leg convincingly at home so the result did not matter in terms of their progress in the competition.
Trends show Wolverhampton Wanderers are unbeaten in 30 of their 34 most recent home matches in all competitions. They have lost only 2 of their last 16 home games in all competitions and have kept a clean sheet in each of their last 3 matches at Molineux Stadium.
Brighton and Hove Albion suffered a very disappointing defeat at home against Crystal Palace last weekend. It was a match they were hoping to take points from ahead of what looks like being a tough schedule over the next few weeks. That result means Brighton and Hove Albion have failed to win any of their last 9 matches in all competitions.
You must go back to a 2-0 home win over Bournemouth on the 28th of December to find the last time Brighton and Hove Albion won a match. Their Premier League record shows 3 defeats and 5 draws in their last 8 games. In fact, they have won only 7 of their last 42 matches in all competitions.
In 9 of Brighton's 10 most recent away Premier League games both teams have scored and they have managed to find the back of the net in 9 of their last 10 league games on the road.
