History of the Wolverhampton Wanderers v Preston North End fixture

Preston N.E. face a trip to Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux on Wednesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The North End will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.

Recent respective form guides

Wolverhampton Wanderers's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Wolves have scored 6, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.
