  • Brentford are unbeaten in their last four league games against Wolves (W3 D1), and are looking to complete the double over them for the first time since 2015-16 in the Championship.

  • Wolves lost this exact fixture 5-3 last season, ending a five game unbeaten run in away league games against Brentford (W3 D2).

  • After only losing one of their first 11 home league matches of the season (W7 D3), Brentford have since lost two of their last three at the Gtech Community Stadium (D1). The Bees haven’t suffered successive home league defeats since February 2025.

  • Wolves have won their last two Premier League games, having only won one of their previous 32 (D8 L23). Rob Edwards’ side could become the first team to win three consecutive Premier League matches despite starting the day of each one bottom of the table since Leicester City in April 2015.

  • Brentford have had the highest share of their goals come from inside the box in the Premier League this season (98% – 43/44), with no side scoring fewer from distance than the Bees (1, level with Crystal Palace).

  • Wolves have taken just five points from their 19 Premier League games kicking off before 7pm this season (W1 D2 L16), compared to 11 points from their 11 late kick-offs this term (W2 D5 L4).

  • Coming into this weekend’s games, only three teams have had fewer shots than Brentford in the Premier League this season (304), while only five teams have scored more goals (44), giving the Bees the highest shot conversion rate in the competition this term (14.5%).

  • Brentford’s Michael Kayode has created more chances without any of them being converted in the Premier League so far this season (27). However, his long throws into the box have ultimately led to four goals for the Bees, more than any other player this term.

  • Four of Rodrigo Gomes’ five Premier League goals for Wolves have been as a substitute, including all three this season. Of all players to score 5+ in the competition, only Matt Derbyshire (90%) and Fábio Carvalho (83%) have scored a higher share from the bench than Gomes (80%).

  • Brentford’s Igor Thiago has made more off the ball runs both into the attacking third (316) and into the opposition box (151) than any other player in the Premier League this season.
