Wolverhampton vs Stoke City Predictions

Wolves can outclass Potters

Wolves are the best bet to win at home to Stoke in a West Midlands derby on Saturday. The visitors have lost on their last eight Championship road trips, and could be heading for more misery at Molineux.

Wolves were relegated from the Premier League last season, while Stoke finished 17th in the Championship with 55 points from 15 wins, ten draws and 21 losses.

Wolves beat Preston 3-1 last weekend, with Fer Lopez scoring twice, including the opener in the eighth minute. They were priced as evens favourites and triumphed with something to spare.

The Wolves are in form at the moment, having gone four league games unbeaten.

Stoke are in poor form, having gone eight Championship games without recording a victory, and they have lost six successive matches. They have only won once in their last ten league games.

The visitors lack killer instinct in front of goal, with Stoke having been beaten and failed to score in four of their last six Championship away games.

The visitors have looked vulnerable at the back. Stoke have failed to keep a clean sheet in 18 of their last 20 Championship games.

With both teams in recent games going over 2.5 goals, a 2-1 win for Wolves is the correct-score pick, with the hosts just edging out Stoke.
