Wolves visit the Ashton Gate Stadium on Wednesday as they face off with Bristol City in the EFL Championship, aiming to remain on the coattails of the league’s top two. With seven wins and 24 points in the bag, the Wolves are currently in third place in the table, just two off Swansea City and four behind Middlesbrough.

Having been relegated from the Premier League this summer, the West Midlands outfit have made a strong case for an immediate return to the top flight, emerging as one of the early candidates for promotion.

In their last game, Wolves beat Cardiff City 3-0 at the Molineux. Fer Lopez opened the scoring in the 10th minute before Adam Armstrong doubled their advantage five minutes later.

Ladislav Krejci added a third goal after the break as César Peixoto’s side cruised to another three points to continue their bright start to the season.

By contrast, Bristol City are in 14th place with 18 points but recently won their first game in five outings after seeing off Bolton Wanderers on the road in dramatic fashion.

Dom Ballard put the Robins in front, but Bolton responded through Josh Sheehan and Sam Dalby in either half to lead 2-1.

With only six minutes of normal time remaining, Sam Bell equalized for Bristol while Scott Twine struck the winner in the third added minute.
