Match Thread: Wolves V Cardiff City (Home, 19/08/2017)

It's an early top of the table clash as second place Wolves take on first place Cardiff City at Molineux. Both sides have won all four games so far this season with Cardiff yet to concead a goal in the league.

Match Facts

  • Wolves have won four consecutive league games for the second time in 2017. They also won five in a row back in April, during which they beat Cardiff at Molineux in the process.
  • Cardiff City's winning start represents the first time in the Championship club's 107-year history that they have won their opening three league games of a season.
  • Wolves have not won their first four league games of a season since 1998-99, when they were in the second tier, under Mark McGhee.
  • This is boss Neil Warnock's best start to a league campaign since 2010-11, in which he guided QPR to the Championship title. But no side of his have ever won their opening four games to a league season.
  • Wolves' 3-1 win over Cardiff in April 2017 ended a three-match losing streak in the league - their longest-ever losing run against the Bluebirds.
  • Cardiff are still to concede their first league goal this season - but they have managed just one clean sheet in their last 20 league visits to Molineux.

I won't be able to help with commentary tomorrow as I will actually be at the match!! I didn't attend any last season, in fact the last time I was at Molineux was for the match against Cardiff the season before last when Noone scored a worldy in their defeat of us!!

Hoping for good things this time around.

Another poor referee for today's game struggling to deal with Warnock's violent tactics & to stay in control. Some football breaking out from
Time to time

The ref is shocking. Someone is gonna get a serious injury if this carries on.

We can't cope with Zohore he's a real big unit and skilful & created their goal for Mendez Laing to finish

The ref was awful and Cardiff was dirty but some our play today was poor and contributed to our loss. Miranda was shocking today while Boly made a few judgement errors when letting the ball bounce. Bright is good with his feet but at times a simple pass was on and he looked for a killer pass that was not on or just tried to beat defenders.
