The Stats Behind the Surge
The 90+ Club: Wolves have gained 4 points from goals scored after the 90th minute in their last three games against the Top 5.
The "Gomes" Connection: Between Joao Gomes, Rodrigo Gomes, and the match-winner André, Wolves’ Brazilian-Portuguese core has accounted for 100% of their goals in these three giant-killing performances.
Molineux Fortress: After losing 10 of their first 13 home games this season, Wolves are now on a 3-match unbeaten run at home, all against teams in the top half of the table.
Climbing the Table: This 7-point haul against the "Big Boys" has moved Wolves from 20th to just 3 points away from safety, with a game in hand over 19th-placed Burnley.
The Verdict: Wolves aren't just surviving; they are thriving under pressure. By taking 7 points from Arsenal, Villa, and Liverpool, they haven't just helped themselves—they’ve completely blown the title race and the Top 4 race wide open.
