Wolves vs. Bournemouth: Gary O'Neil's side looking to extend Premier League-leading streak

Wolverhampton Wanderers can remain at the top of a particular Premier League table when they play host to Bournemouth on Saturday afternoon.

Wolverhampton Wanderers square off against Bournemouth on Saturday afternoon looking to extend their stay at the top of a Premier League chart.

The West Midlands outfit currently find themselves sitting just outside of the relegation zone, a recent revival moving them into 17th position in the Premier League table.

After a run of just one point being accumulated from eight matches, Gary O'Neil's side have since recorded eight points from a possible 12.

Next up for Wolves is a showdown against Bournemouth, O'Neil's former club, at Molineux on Saturday as they bid to create some breathing space between themselves and the bottom three.

While both teams will be confident of earning maximum points, Wolves are looking to prolong their hold of a leading Premier League statistic.

Wolves scoring run going under the radar

Although Wolves have spent time at the bottom of the table during 2024-25, they have scored 20 goals, just seven short of Tottenham Hotspur's division-best of 27.

Nevertheless, Wolves are one of two teams - the other being Chelsea - who have scored in 11 successive Premier League fixtures, the joint-best in the division.

As it stands, Wolves have only failed to score away at Arsenal on the opening day of the campaign, albeit still possessing the worst defensive record in the division at the same time.

Furthermore, Wolves have scored at least twice in each of their last four Premier League fixtures, against Brighton & Hove Albion, Crystal Palace, Southampton and Fulham respectively.

Could Semenyo absence be key?

Antoine Semenyo has arguably been Bournemouth's standout performer this campaign, but the versatile attacker misses out on Saturday due to suspension.

In the last eight games that Semenyo has not featured, Bournemouth have failed to win, losing six times during that period.

With regards to their away record, the Cherries have won three and lost nine of their most recent 16 such fixtures, albeit one of the victories being against Wolves.

That said, Bournemouth's return of five points from away fixtures this season is better than Wolves' accumulation of points at Molineux, with just four points coming from six matches.
