Stats for this game
Matchup Wolves VS Preston
Wolves supply the stronger league results
Wolves beat Preston 3-1 away on 22 August 2026, 3-2 at home on 21 October 2017 and 1-0 at home on 7 May 2017. These Championship wins give Wolves the clearer direction across the dated league scorelines, with both narrow and wider margins. Preston remain part of the balance because the clubs drew 1-1 at Preston on 17 February 2018, interrupting the sequence of Wolves victories in the league context.
Draws and cup context matter
The teams also drew 0-0 at Preston on 19 November 2016. Wolves won 2-1 at home in the League Cup on 23 August 2022, but that knockout result should remain secondary to the Championship meetings. Preston therefore have two level league results to set against Wolves’ wins, while Wolves bring a stronger collection of decisive scores. A future Championship meeting can ask whether Preston turn another close contest into a victory or Wolves add to their positive direction.
