Wolves vs Bournemouth Match Analysis & Prediction
24/04/2024 9:45 pm
Both bound for mid-table in the Premier League’s final standings, Wolverhampton Wanderers and AFC Bournemouth meet on Wednesday night at Molineux Stadium.
After suffering a 2-0 defeat to title-chasing Arsenal on Saturday, Wolves are now winless in six matches, having previously won four from five to improve their prospects of finishing inside the Premier League’s top 10.
Sitting 11th in the table with a seven-point deficit to seventh-placed Manchester United, Gary O’Neil’s side are therefore all but out of the reckoning for European qualification.
It has been eight matches since they last kept a clean sheet, and an injury-affected squad have lost each of their last three home games – Wolves last lost four in a row at Molineux back in 2017.
On Sunday, Bournemouth travelled to Birmingham seeking an 11th league win since mid-November, and Dominic Solanke’s spot-kick initially put them on course to topple Aston Villa, but having conceded an equaliser in first-half stoppage time, they then shipped two more goals after the break.
Andoni Iraola’s side hav now lost five Premier League matches after opening the scoring this season – only Brentford have done so more often – and they have effectively dropped 27 points from winning positions all told.
Nevertheless, the Cherries have already cemented their place in mid-table and remain well clear of the relegation zone – instead, they are still looking up at the top half of the table.
Trailing 10th-placed Brighton & Hove Albion by two points, although having played a game more, Bournemouth can still secure just the second top-10 placing in their brief Premier League history.

O’Neil was without Craig Dawson, Nelson Semedo, Pedro Neto, Jean-Ricner Bellegrade and Matheus Cunha against Arsenal.
Pablo Sarabia, Mario Lemina and Rayan Ait-Nouri were not sufficiently fit to start either, but all three will hope to be included on Wednesday night.
