This match has been played — the final score is still to come.

What to expect

We expect about 0.9 goals from Sheffield Weds and 1.8 from Wolves, so Wolves come out ahead by a clear distance rather than a nose. Put together, that is around 2.7 goals in the game, which is an ordinary sort of total.

Our pick: Wolves to win. Wolves shade this one on the numbers (xG 0.9-1.8), and we make them about 73% to win. They look the better bet on the road, and backing them outright is the straightforward way in.

We put the chance of that landing at about 73 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.60, which works out at about 63 out of 100. That gap is the whole reason this is on the site: we rate it more likely than the price does, and the price looks good to us because of it.

What the numbers say
Wolves have won one of their last five.

One thing to watch

Favourites drop points more often than a short price suggests, and one moment can earn Sheffield Weds a draw or better.
