Sunderland's 4-0 defeat to Manchester City this midweek was uncharacteristic of a side that has been transformed by Martin O'Neill's organized tactics. Perhaps it is a testament more to City's desire than Sunderland's gameplay as many of the goals, especially the first by Aguero, were top quality. The Black Cats are in 11th place and would like to finish in the top half of the table. A win over Wolves is the perfect opportunity to get one over those teams who are just 1 point ahead.
Terry Connor has been unable to curb the stream of losses that is plaguing Wolverhampton and their fans this year. They have lost seven in a row and eleven out of fourteen in all league matches for 2012. Last match was a 0-3 home defeat to Arsenal in which the Gunners ran rampant over the home ground. Next season in the championship seems inevitable and is sure to be a rebuilding year. Against Sunderland, Wolves will only be playing for pride but even that may not be enough.
