Wolves play host to Manchester United at Molineux at tea-time on Saturday, and hold the advantage on previous meetings between the two. Of the 46 games played, Wolves have recorded 23 wins, and Man. Utd. have come away with 14 victories.

The last time the two teams met at Wolves was just over four years ago, in January 2006, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-3 winners in a F.A. Cup match.

Recent respective form guides

Wolverhampton Wanderers's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. Wolves have conceded a disappointing 9 goals in this period, and managed to convert only 3 of their own chances.

Man. Utd.'s away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. A generous 10 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.

Wolves are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 24 points from 27 matches. Man. Utd.'s total of 60 points from their 28 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Barclays Premier League.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Nothing seems to be going right for the Wolves at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Red Devils come away with an easy victory. Away win
