On Wednesday 21st February Wolves host Norwich at Molineux. The weather forecast is for a dry but cold evening so the thermals will be getting another outing for those lucky enough to have secured a ticket for what is yet another sell out game.
With the league leaders now unbeaten in 4 following their hard fought draw at Deepdale on Saturday and Norwich unbeaten in 3, having gained 10 points from their last 5 games, this promises to be an entertaining game. Currently in 13th place in the table with 45 points, Norwich have found a recent run of form having beaten Boro’ and drawn with Derby this month. Despite all the hype surrounding striker Nélson Oliveira during the recent transfer window, midfielder James Madison is the Canaries current top scorer with 9 goals and 5 assists.
The reverse fixture at Carrow Road back in October resulted in a 2-0 win for Wolves after which Norwich boss Daniel Farke had this to say,
"Normally I am very sad and annoyed and try to figure out the factors behind our defeat. This is very easy.
"We have to accept we faced an opponent with a very high quality, with bigger quality than us. They were the better team, although it is annoying that we conceded two goals from set pieces.
"They are so good on counters and with the quality of their offensive players it is impossible to control all the counter attacks. They have an unbelievable quality for this division."
Little has changed since then with the exception of the addition of Benik Afobe to the Wolves offensive line up. As a result, it is difficult to predict anything but another Wolves win.
Gem’s prediction 2-0

See Karanka’s Forest scored for the first time in 5 games today. Bet their fans are thrilled with what his team has produced.
And Preston drew for the 15th time this season and they picked up 3 more yellow cards. Guess Villa must have been diving
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Middlesborough fans will have been pleased to see him go, but then they got Pulis in! What did they do to deserve that? I honestly don't understand how some managers get into jobs, especially after failing badly elsewhere.

Can't imagine they are given boro are lower than at any time in karankas last three seasons with them?!?!

Yes 4 teams can't catch us now and that number will get bigger as the weeks go by until nobody can catch us. Look forward to following that countdown

It's actually 5 DJ, plus Bolton who theoretically could get 72 points but have a -22 GD. So it's 6 and counting.

7 down with 16 to go..?
