When Leeds United travels to Molineux on Friday to face Wolverhampton Wanderers, they will be trying to make it back-to-back Premier League victories for the first time this season.
The Whites are coming off a big 2-1 win against Norwich City, while Wolves defeated Everton 1-0 last time out to make it three wins in a row in England's top flight.
Wolves lost three straight games to Arsenal, West Ham United, and Crystal Palace between February 24 and March 5, effectively ending their chances of finishing in the top four. However, they have bounced back with back-to-back victories over Watford and Everton, scoring five goals and conceding none.

Bruno Lage's team are currently five points behind fourth-placed Arsenal, but the Gunners have three games in hand, and a miraculous turn of events would have to occur for Wolves to finish fourth this season, so a top-five or top-six finish in the final months of the campaign is a more realistic goal.
Wolves have struggled for consistency at Molineux this season, winning six, drawing two, and losing six of their 14 league games in front of their home fans. On the other hand, though, they are unbeaten in their last six league meetings against Leeds, including a 1-0 win in the 2020-21 Premier League season's comparable fixture.
The home side will enter this match full of confidence, but the same could be said for Leeds following their incredibly important 2-1 home success over Norwich on Sunday.
Kenny McLean appeared to have earned a point for Norwich when he cancelled out a first-half Rodrigo effort in the 14th minute of the contest, but Joe Gelhardt netted in the 94th minute to hand Leeds all three points, sparking jubilant scenes inside an emotional Elland Road.
The victory was Leeds’ first in the league since the middle of January, and new head coach Jesse Marsch will be tasked with making it back-to-back wins in the league for the first time this season.
Leeds will be anxious to build on their victory over Norwich, but we at Mdundo.com are finding it difficult to support the Whites to win at Molineux. Wolves have been at their best in their previous two games, and should be able to clinch another win in front of their own fans.
We are also predicting over 1.5 goals in this match.
