In their last Premier League outing, an impressive double by João Gomes propelled mid-table Wolves to a thrilling 2-1 victory over Tottenham. Now, Gary O’Neil’s squad is gearing up to secure back-to-back league wins for the first time this year. The stakes are high as they aim to delight their home crowd, having suffered defeats in their last two matches at Molineux. However, they haven’t faced the dire prospect of three consecutive losses at home since September 2021.

Wolves have a solid track record against struggling Sheffield United, having not lost a home league game to them in their last eight encounters, winning four and drawing four. With such dominance, it’s no surprise that Wolves are considered heavy favorites for this clash. Their offensive prowess has been a driving force this season, with just one instance of failing to score in 12 home league games, making them a formidable force against the league’s weakest defense.

On the flip side, Sheffield United endured a humiliating 5-0 defeat at the hands of Brighton in their recent outing, nullifying the momentum gained from their previous 3-1 victory against Luton Town. Manager Chris Wilder faces the arduous task of lifting his team’s spirits, especially with their precarious position in the league standings, trailing safety by seven points.

The Blades are hungry for a positive result to reignite their slim hopes of avoiding relegation, and they’ll be eager to achieve successive away victories, a feat accomplished only four times in the club’s history.

Keep an eye on Wolves winger Pedro Neto, whose nine assists in just 16 Premier League appearances this season have been instrumental. Meanwhile, Sheffield United’s James McAtee has showcased his scoring prowess with five goals, two of which were netted in the first half of away matches.

An intriguing statistic adds to the narrative, with Sheffield United conceding an average of 7.4 corners per Premier League match this season, the highest in the competition.

Wolves are riding high on confidence and home advantage, while Sheffield United are desperate for redemption. Expect an enthralling battle as both teams vie for crucial points in their respective campaigns.
