Match facts
Head-to-head
Wolves are unbeaten in their past five away league matches against Brentford (W3, D2).
The visitors also earned a 1-1 FA Cup third-round draw at the Gtech Community Stadium in January last season.
Brentford
Brentford have opened the scoring in the first minute in each of their last three top-flight games - no team has ever scored four first-minute goals in a Premier League season.
However, they failed to win any of those past three matches, or score again in them.
The Bees have dropped a league-high 38 points from winning positions since the start of last season, including a joint-high eight so far in 2024-25.
Bryan Mbeumo is vying to score in three consecutive league appearances for the first time since December 2019, when he enjoyed a run of four in the Championship.
Wolverhampton Wanderers
Wolves have one point, equalling their lowest tally after six league games of a season.
They previously started as badly in 1926-27, 1964-65 and their debut Premier League campaign in 2003-04. Wolves lost the seventh match in the first two of those seasons and drew it 21 years ago.
All six Premier League fixtures for Wolves this season were against teams currently in the top half of the table. Brentford are 12th.
Their only victory in the past 16 league games was 2-1 at home to Luton in April.
Gary O'Neil's side have scored the fewest goals in the division after half time this season and conceded the most: one and 11 respectively.
Wolves and Southampton have gone 18 Premier League matches without a clean sheet, the joint-longest current run among top-flight clubs.
