Erling Haaland's record vs. Wolves
Played: 5
Won: 4
Drawn: 0
Lost: 1
Goals: 8
Assists: 0
Since joining Manchester City from Borussia Dortmund in the summer of 2022, Erling Haaland has faced Wolves competitively five times, all in the Premier League, and has helped the Citizens come out on top on four occasions.
The Norwegian has remarkably scored eight goals in that time; only against RB Leipzig (12 goals in eight games) has the striker scored more goals against another opponent in his professional club career.
Haaland's first meeting with Wolves came at Molineux in September 2022 when he scored Man City's second goal in a comfortable 3-0 away victory, shortly before the hosts were reduced to 10 men.
City's No.9 then stole the headlines in the reverse fixture four months later as he scored all three goals - his fourth league hat-trick of that season - in a 3-0 win at the Etihad Stadium, completing his treble in the 54th minute.
The first time Haaland failed to make the net ripple against Wolves was at the start of the 2023-24 campaign when he played the full 90 minutes in a surprise 2-1 away defeat, registering just one shot on goal throughout the match.
However, Haaland returned to his prolific best when Wolves visited the Etihad in May 2024 when he scored four goals, including a first-half hat-trick, in a thumping 5-1 victory for Pep Guardiola's side, a result that moved the Citizens one step closer to winning an unprecedented fourth consecutive Premier League title.
Haaland's most recent encounter against Wolves came in October 2024 when he failed to score during 90 minutes in a last-gasp 2-1 Premier League victory at Molineux.
