Wolves vs Everton LIVE: Premier League result and reaction as Toffees slump to big defeat
Follow all the action from Molineux Stadium
Gary O’Neil will be hoping to push his Wolves team into the top half of the table as they host Everton at Molineux this afternoon. The midlands club are in good form with two wins from their last two matches including a 4-1 hammering of Brentford last time out.
Should Wolves replicate that form this afternoon they can easily challenge Sean Dyche’s Everton who are looking to move further away from the relegation zone.
The Toffees’ 10-point deduction has sent them into a relegation battle as they are one point above the bottom three. Consecutive defeats to Tottenham and Manchester City halted a winning run of four league games in a row for the Merseryside club who will be hoping to get back to winning ways this afternoon.

Everton had won just two of their last 10 away league games against Wolves before this one (four draws, four defeats), winning 3-0 in April 2011 and 2-1 in January 2021. The Toffees have endured another miserable trip to the West Midlands here.

Wolves are winless in their final league game in each of the last four calendar years (one draw, three defeats). That run looks set to end here, unless Everton can produce a remarkable comeback in the next few minutes.

A big cheer goes up around Molineux as the home fans notice Neto stripped and ready to enter the action after two months out! Only Kieran Trippier and Mohamed Salah have matched his seven Premier League assists this season.

Hwang turns his marker with ease on halfway to set Wolves off on another menacing attack. The South Korean spreads it wide for Hugo Bueno, who has Cunha and Sarabia to aim for in the centre, but Branthwaite is there to snuff out the danger. Everton have really struggled with the pace and power of Wolves' front three.

Wolves have now scored 30 goals in the Premier League this season. They only managed 31 throughout the entirety of last campaign! Their attacking improvement under O'Neil has been huge.
