Match Facts

This is just the second FA Cup meeting between Wolves and Brighton, with Wolves winning a third round tie 3-2 in 1978-79 previously.
Brighton have won their last three away games against Wolves in all competitions, having won just one of their previous 11 visits to Molineux before this (D7 L3).
Wolves are looking to reach the FA Cup quarter-final for the third time this century, previously doing so in 2002-03 and 2018-19.
Since promotion to the Premier League in 2017, Brighton are looking to reach the FA Cup quarter-final for the fourth time (2017-18, 2018-19 and 2022-23). They’d only done so twice in their history before this (1982-83 and 1985-86).
Matheus Cunha scored in Wolves’ third round replay win against Brentford, and in the fourth round against West Brom. The last player to score in the first three available rounds to Wolves in a single FA Cup campaign was George Ndah in 2002-03.
Brighton’s João Pedro has scored six goals in his last three FA Cup games. He’s the joint-top scorer in this season’s competition with five (first round onwards), netting a hat-trick in the last round against Sheffield United.
