Wolves vs Brentford

This is the first time that Wolves and Brentford have drawn a league match at Molineux since November 2013 (0-0), and the first time that both teams have scored in this exact fixture since a 3-1 Wolves win in the Championship in September 2016.

Wolves have now won just one of their 11 final day Premier League fixtures, a rate of 9% - among sides to have played in at least three seasons, only three others have a rate below 10% (West Bromwich Albion, Sunderland and Hull City).

Bryan Mbeumo’s opener was his 20th goal in the Premier League this season, the second Brentford player to reach that tally in a single campaign (also Ivan Toney in 2022-23) and the first Cameroonian ever to do so. Indeed, it was his ninth opening goal in the league this season, the joint-most of any player (also Raúl Jiménez and Chris Wood).

Wolves have lost their last two league games against Brentford, last losing more consecutively against the Bees between 1946 and 1986 (4).

Following their 5-3 win in the reverse fixture, Brentford are looking to complete their first league double over Wolves since the 2015-16 Championship campaign.

Wolves have lost their final league match in each of the last seven seasons by an aggregate score of 19-2. They’ve also lost their last match in nine of their 10 campaigns as a Premier League side, with the exception a 2-1 win over Sunderland in 2009-10.

Brentford have alternated between winning (3) and losing (3) their final league game in each of the last six seasons, going down 4-2 against Newcastle United last season.

Having been unbeaten in seven Premier League games across March and April (W6 D1), Wolves have lost all three in May. They’ve already had three separate runs of 4+ defeats in the competition this season, having not had any in their first six campaigns following promotion in 2018.
