4992

Premier League matches are often full of goals and our predictive analysis suggests more of them same in this match.

The game between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Sheffield United takes place on the 25th of February at Molineux Stadium. The hosts begin this round of fixtures sitting in 11th place on 35 points while the visitors are bottom of the table with 13 points to their name.

Wolves come into this match having previously enjoyed a great 2-1 win at Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League. Wolves scored at the end of the first half but the lead was short lived as Spurs equalised early in the second period.

Wolves did not allow the equaliser to deter them and they scored the winning goal in the 63rd minute.

The win at Spurs means Wolves are undefeated in 9 of their last 11 fixtures in all competitions. They have won 3 of their last 5 matches, with the additional victories coming over Chelsea away in the Premier League and West Bromwich Albion away in the FA Cup.

Trends show Wolves are undefeated in 6 of their last 8 Premier League games. They have lost only 2 of their last 10 league fixtures at home, with over 2.5 goals having been scored in 3 of their last 4 Premier League matches on home soil.

Wolves are undefeated in their last 9 home games against Sheffield United in all competitions.

Sheffield United make the trip to Molineux Stadium on the back of a hugely disappointing 5-0 loss at home against Brighton in the Premier League. The Blades were 1-0 down after 20 minutes and conceded a second goal 4 minutes later.

Sheffield United collapsed in the final 15 minutes of the matche, conceding 3 goals.

The defeat to Brighton means Sheffield United have lost 4 of their 5 most recent fixtures in all competitions. There have been losses to Aston Villa at home and Crystal Palace away in the Premier League plus a 5-2 home defeat at the hands of Brighton in the FA Cup.

The only bright spot for Sheffield United came in their 3-1 win at Luton Town in the Premier League.

Statistics show Sheffield United have won only 4 of their 28 most recent games in all competitions. There have been over 2.5 goals scored in Sheffield United's last 7 matches in all competitions and they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 12 away Premier League fixtures.

Team news and Wolves could be without forward Matheus Cunha due to a hamstring injury. Every other player should be fit and available for the hosts.

Sheffield United travel without suspended defender Mason Holgate. Max Lowe and Rhys Norrington-Davies are injured plus there are doubts over the fitness of George Baldock and Daniel Jebbison.

Sheffield United recorded a shock win at Luton Town in their most recent away game but we are unlikely to see the same outcome here. Wolves are doing well under the guidance of Gary O'Neil and they should come out on top, with over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring.
