Wolves prepare to entertain Cardiff City at Molineux on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Wolves are clearly on top, winning 55.00% of the games played between the two.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Molineux was just last season, in September 2004, with Cardiff City inflicting a narrow 2-3 defeat upon the Wolves in a Championship match.
