Last meeting: Norwich City 0,
Wolves 1 (January 30, 2007): Norwich
City somehow managed to snatch defeat
from the jaws of victory as they slumped
to an embarrassing defeat. Wolves
ended with only nine men – but
that was only half the story of a
game which City dominated for long
spells without managing to find a
way past keeper Matt Murray. Chance
upon chance went begging as City threw
everything bar the kitchen sink at
Wolves. In the end it took a goal
early in the second half by Michael
Kightly to settle the issue. Full

Last Norwich away win:
13/09/1995 Wolves 0, Norwich 2 (Johnson,
Ward)
Chances: Mick McCarthy’s
men surpassed all expectations last
campaign with a very young squad built
almost from scratch. Now following
a takeover by millionaire businessman
Steve Morgan the former Ireland boss
has cash to spend and has boosted
his firepower with the signings of
Freddy Eastwood and Stephen Elliott
and added more pace to his side with
the acquisition of highly-rated winger
Matt Jarvis.
Prediction: 5th
