"Wolves' 2025-26 Premier League campaign has been nothing short of catastrophic. The Old Gold have occupied last place since matchday three and have struggled to find consistency or momentum at any point this season. Vítor Pereira was dismissed after failing to win any of the club's opening 10 league fixtures, but even after the managerial change, Wolves waited until matchday 20 to finally celebrate their first Premier League victory."
"After defeating Aston Villa 2-0, they followed up in remarkable fashion with a sensational 2-1 triumph over Liverpool, sealed by André's dramatic 94th-minute winner. Despite this recent uplift, Wolves' relegation appears almost sealed. They remain 11 points adrift of 17th-placed Nottingham Forest, who also hold two games in hand."
"Yet, while the Premier League has been a source of frustration, Wolves have impressed in domestic cups. They knocked out West Ham and Everton before a narrow 4-3 League Cup exit to Chelsea, and victories over Shrewsbury Town (6-1) and Grimsby Town (1-0) have brought them to the FA Cup fifth round."
Wolverhampton Wolves and Liverpool meet in the FA Cup fifth round at Molineux on Friday, just four days after Wolves' shocking 2-1 Premier League victory over Liverpool. Wolves' 2024-25 season has been catastrophic in the league, occupying last place since matchday three with relegation appearing almost sealed, sitting 11 points behind 17th-placed Nottingham Forest. However, Wolves have shown impressive form in domestic cups, eliminating West Ham and Everton before reaching the FA Cup fifth round with victories over Shrewsbury Town and Grimsby Town. Manager Rob Edwards will attempt to capitalize on recent momentum, including back-to-back league wins and André's dramatic 94th-minute winner against Liverpool, to extend their cup run despite their dire league position.
