Match Facts
Wolves are unbeaten in their last eight home league games against Sheffield United (W4 D4), since a 3-1 loss in the second tier in October 2002.
Following their 2-1 win at Bramall Lane in November, Sheffield United are looking to complete their first league double over Wolves since 1989-90, when they were promoted from the second tier.
Wolves have won five of their last eight Premier League games (D1 L2), although their two losses in this run have come in their last two matches at Molineux (v Manchester United & Brentford). Wolves last lost three consecutive home top-flight matches in October/December 2022 (4).
Having beaten fellow newly promoted side Luton 3-1 at Kenilworth Road, Sheffield United will be looking to win back-to-back away Premier League matches for just a fifth time, with the previous instance coming in December 2019.
Since the start of last season, Wolves have won just two of their nine Premier League games against newly promoted opposition (D5 L2), although they did beat Burnley 1-0 in their most recent such game. They’ve also won just one of their four top-flight matches against sides starting the day bottom during this period (D1 L2), losing their last such game, against Sheffield United back in November.
Sheffield United have lost five Premier League games by a margin of 5+ goals this season, the joint most such defeats of any side in a single Premier League campaign (also Derby County in 2007-08). In fact, only Darwen (7 in 1891-92) and Ipswich Town (6 in 1963-64) have lost more top-flight matches in a single season by 5+ goals.
Across the eight matches in which they’ve led, Sheffield United have spent a total of just 183 minutes in the lead this season, fewer than any other Premier League side, with 33% of those minutes in the lead coming against Luton in their most recent away game (60).
Despite making just 16 appearances this season, Pedro Neto has provided nine assists with no Wolves player registering more in a single Premier League campaign (Adam Traoré also 9 in 37 apps in 2019-20). Seven of his nine assists this term have either been for an equalising goal (3) or a goal to put Wolves into the lead (4).
Wolves forward Hwang Hee-Chang has scored 10 Premier League goals from just 13 shots on target this season, exceeding his xG by +3.6 (10 goals from an xG of 6.4). Only two players have scored more goals for Wolves in a single Premier Leage campaign: Steven Fletcher in 2011-12 (12) and Raúl Jiménez in 2018-19 (13) and 2019-20 (17).
Sheffield United goalkeeper Wes Foderingham has kept just a single clean sheet in the Premier League this season, conceding the most goals (63) of any keeper in their first 25 appearances in the competition. He has, however, conceded fewer goals (59 – excluding own goals) than his xGoT conceded figure would suggest (59.3).
