The media have run out of superlatives for Nuno Espirito Santo’s men this season and their brand of football has been a pleasure to watch. Wolves have picked up 71 points from their opening 31 games to open up a 12 point gap at the top of the Championship table and will want to stretch their lead at the top of the table and take another step towards the Premier League.
Leo Bonatini has been a revelation in the Championship this season and he’ll be keen to add to his tally of 12 goals this season.
Norwich City
Daniel Farke looks to be acclimatising to life in English football and he has guided the Canaries to 13th place in the Championship – having only lost one of their last 10 matches. The Canaries have picked up 44 points from their opening 31 games and could sneak a play-off place if things go their way – 8 points off play off positions. James Maddison has notched 10 goals this season for Norwich and how he would love to add to that total at Molineux.
Head to Head
Norwich hold the superior head to head record between the two clubs leading 30:13 with another 15 games ending as draws. Wolves picked up a solid 2-0 win at Carrow Road back in October thanks to goals from Willy Boly and Leo Bonatini.
