Wolves host Sunderland at Molineux Stadium on May 2, 2026. Wolves are already relegated to the Championship, while Sunderland aims for European qualification.
Wolves have lost three straight matches by a combined score of 8-0. They have the worst attack in the Premier League, scoring just 24 goals this season. Rob Edwards stated, “Wolves are merely playing for pride after their relegation was confirmed earlier this month.”
Sunderland sits 12th in the table with 46 points. They need just one more point to mathematically guarantee Premier League survival. Sunderland won the reverse fixture against Wolves 2-0 earlier this season.
Key statistics:
- Wolves have failed to score in a league-high eighteen different matches this season.
- They have lost twenty-three matches this season, matching their joint-most in a 38-game campaign.
- Sunderland has kept a clean sheet in their last four league games against Wolves.
The match will not be broadcast live on TV in the UK due to the standard Saturday 3pm television blackout. Wolves remain bottom of the table, three points behind managerless Burnley.
Rob Edwards will be without the injured duo of Sam Johnstone and Enso Gonzalez. Sunderland aims to complete their first league double over Wolves since the 1949-50 campaign. Observers note that Sunderland has too much quality compared to a relegated Wolves side with nothing but pride left on the line.
