Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Leicester City: Premier League preview, team news, stats & head-to-head

Following a 3-0 win in the reverse fixture, Wolves are looking to complete their first league double over Leicester City since the 1957-58 campaign.

Leicester have won just three of their last 19 away league games against Wolves (D7 L9), though one of these was a 4-0 victory in their most recent visit in October 2022.

Leicester have only kept more Premier League clean sheets against Newcastle (13) and Southampton (9) than they have against Wolves (8), despite only facing the Midlands side 13 times in the competition.

Wolves have won each of their last five Premier League games, last having a longer run in the top-flight in September/October 1970 (6).

Leicester have been relegated from the Premier League for the fifth time, after 1994-95, 2001-02, 2003-04 and 2022-23. The last time they suffered the drop before the final game of the season was in 2003-04, with the Foxes winning their first game following relegation back then (3-1 vs Portsmouth).

Leicester have failed to score in a league-high 15 different Premier League games this season, only failing to do so in more in the 2001-02 campaign (19).

Leicester have kept just one clean sheet in the Premier League this season, and have conceded in each of their last 26 matches. It’s their longest run without a league clean sheet since a streak of 37 between February and December 1957.

Both Wolves and Leicester have conceded a league-high 12 headed goals in the Premier League this season. However, Wolves have netted the fewest headers of any side this term (2).

Leicester have conceded 73 goals in the Premier League this season. It’s their most in a single league campaign since 1994-95 (80), and most in a 20-team league since 1914-15 (88).

Matheus Cunha has scored 14 Premier League goals this season – the only Wolves player with more in a single campaign is Raúl Jiménez (17 in 2019-20).
