Wolves have lost two of their last three Premier League meetings with Bournemouth (W1), having been unbeaten in their first five against them (W3 D2).
All four Premier League meetings between Wolves and Bournemouth at Molineux have been won to nil – Wolves won the first two 2-0 and 1-0 respectively, while the Cherries have won 1-0 on their last two visits.
Wolves have won their last two Premier League games, as many as they had in their previous 22 combined (D5 L15). They last won three in a row in December 2023.
Wolves have scored in their last 11 Premier League games, the joint-longest ongoing run of any side in the competition. They’ve netted at least twice in each of their last four (10 in total), last netting multiple goals in more consecutive top-flight matches between May and August 2011 (5).
Having won four consecutive Premier League away games in November/December last season, Bournemouth have won just three of their last 16 on the road (D4 L9). One of these was against Wolves in April, however.
All four of Bournemouth’s Premier League wins this season have been against teams either starting the day in the relegation zone (vs Everton and Southampton), or in the top four (vs Arsenal and Man City).
Wolves’ Premier League games have seen 48 goals so far this season, more than any other side. Their 20 goals scored is their most 12 games into a top-flight campaign since 1972-73 (25), while their 28 conceded is the most at this stage since 1983-84 (31).
No team has scored more goals via substitutes in the Premier League this season than Bournemouth (5). All five of the Cherries’ sub goals have been scored by different players, the most different sub scorers in the league this term.
Since his Premier League debut in January 2023, Matheus Cunha has both scored more goals (21) and provided more assists (10) than any other Wolves player. Indeed, his 31 goal involvements is the second most of any Wolves player in the competition’s history (Raúl Jiménez, 58).
With three goals and two assists, Wolves’ Rayan Aït-Nouri has been involved in more Premier League goals than any other defender so far this term (5).
