Match Facts
Wolves have won four of their last five Premier League games against Everton (D1), as many victories as they’d managed in their previous 21 league meetings with the Toffees (D8 L9).
Everton have won just two of their last 10 away league games against Wolves (D4 L4), winning 3-0 in April 2011 and 2-1 in January 2021.
Wolves are winless in their final league game in each of the last four calendar years (D1 L3), failing to score a single goal in these games. Their last such win was at Spurs in 2018 (3-1).
This is the eighth consecutive calendar year that Everton’s final league game is away from home. They’re unbeaten in their last four, beating Newcastle in 2019, Sheffield United in 2020 and drawing with Chelsea and Manchester City in 2021 and 2022 respectively.
Wolves are unbeaten in their last seven Premier League home games (W4 D3), last having a longer run without defeat at Molineux between January and August 2019 (10).
Wolves have scored in each of their last 16 Premier League home games – they last had a longer scoring streak at Molineux in the top-flight between April 1965 and April 1968 (22 games).
Everton have won five of their last seven away games in the Premier League (L2), with the only two games in this run they didn’t win coming against sides starting the day in the top five (0-2 v Liverpool and 1-2 v Spurs). They’ve already won more away league games this season (5) as in the previous two combined (4).
Everton manager Sean Dyche has only lost one of his last eight Premier League games against Wolves (W3 D4), although that lone defeat did come in this season’s reverse fixture back in August (0-1). Dyche has never previously lost both meetings with Wolves in a single Premier League campaign.
Pablo Sarabia has been involved in five goals in his five Premier League home games for Wolves this season, scoring one and assisting four. These goal contributions have been worth six points to Wolves, while he’s averaging a goal or assist every 52 minutes at Molineux so far this term.
Since the start of last season, Abdoulaye Doucouré has scored (7) and been directly involved (8, one assist) in more away goals in the Premier League than any other Everton player.
