The hottest team in the Premier League meets the most-recently relegated side when Wolves welcome Leicester City to the Molineux in a geographic rivalry on Saturday.
Wolves have won five-straight games as part of a six-match unbeaten Premier League run under Vitor Pereira, out-scoring opponents 10-4 to hit 15th place as the lowest of three teams on 38 points.
WATCH — Wolves v Leicester
East Midlands peers (for now) Leicester will finish in the bottom three, and manager Ruud van Nistelrooy would love to give his side a winning vibe over the final five matches before life restarts in the Championship.
The Foxes fired Steve Cooper in late November, going 1-1-1 Foxes to start life under Ruud van Nistelrooy. Since then? A miserable 1W-1D-16L stretching back to mid-December.
They’ve scored just two goals since the start of February, and have a soft landing for the Run-In against Saints, Forest, Ipswich, and Bournemouth following this tilt with Wolves.

Wolves vs Leicester prediction
Leicester rarely score goals but Wolves may provide an opening or two. Mads Hermansen is coming off solid performances against Brighton and Liverpool, and is capable of slowing Matheus Cunha and Wolves’ attack, but can Jamie Vardy, Bilal El Khannouss, and Co. threaten Wolves — potentially without Jose Sa?
