Wolves host Brentford at the Molineux Stadium on Tuesday for a third-round replay of their FA Cup tie.
On Saturday, in West London, the sides played out a 1-1 draw. Neal Maupay put the Bees ahead in the 41st minute but Tommy Doyle equalized for the Wolves after the hour mark.
It's worth noting that the visitors were also reduced to 10 men in just the ninth minute as Joao Gomes was sent off. Brentford (14) had twice as many shots as Wolves (7) and held a mammoth 74% possession, but were unable to capitalize on their dominance.
Trending
Yet, it was still a marked improvement from their last performance against Wolves on 28 December 2023, when Brentford were demolished 4-1 at home in the Premier League.
The Wolves certainly will look back upon that performance for inspiration as they prepare to face Brentford again. At home, Gary O'Neil's side are a different kettle of fish, going unbeaten in their last eight matches since a 3-1 loss to Liverpool at the Molineux on 16 September 2023.
During this run, the Wanderers won five times, including top-flight wins over three-time defending English champions Manchester City, and London giants Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea.
