Match Facts
Brentford have won just one of their last eight league games against Wolves (D2 L5), beating them 2-0 at Molineux in the first ever Premier League meeting between the sides in September 2021.
Wolves are unbeaten in their last four away league games against Brentford (W2 D2), since a 3-0 defeat in the Championship in February 2016.
Since a 2-0 win at Spurs in February 2022, Wolves are winless in their last 14 Premier League away games against London sides (D3 L11). They’ve lost their last five in the capital, last losing more consecutively in the top-flight between September 2010 and November 2011 (6).
Brentford have lost three of their last six Premier League home games (W3), as many as in their previous 27 at the Gtech Community Stadium (W13 D11).
Wolves have won just five of their last 35 Premier League away games (D7 L23), losing 10 of their last 13 on the road. Each of these five wins have been against teams starting the day in the bottom four of the table.
Having recorded back-to-back shutouts in their final two home games last season, Brentford have kept just one clean sheet in their nine Premier League home games this term, beating Burnley 3-0 in October.
Brentford have lost five of their last six Premier League games (W1), including each of the last three in a row. They last lost more consecutively in January/February 2022, a run of five in which the fourth game was a home loss against Wolves.
Keane Lewis-Potter scored his first league goal for Brentford in his 21st appearance last time out against Aston Villa. He last scored in consecutive league games in April 2021 while at Hull (a run of three).
Three of Matheus Cunha’s four Premier League away goals this season have been against London sides – it’s the joint-most goals a Wolves player has scored in the capital in a single Premier League campaign (level with Raúl Jiménez in 2019-20).
Matheus Cunha has scored four goals in his last seven Premier League away games – the last Wolves player to score more on the road in single league campaign was Raúl Jiménez in 2019-20 (9).
