Head-to-head record
Previous meetings: 123
Wolves wins: 46
Draws: 35
Leicester wins: 42
Since first crossing paths all the way back in 1906, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Leicester City have built up a healthy head-to-head history over each other, clashing on 123 occasions in all competitions.
Unsurprisingly, neither side boasts significantly more victories than the other, but the Old Gold just edge the wins counter with 46 successes compared to 42 for the Foxes, while 35 stalemates have also been played out between the two teams.
The overall head-to-head history coincidentally parallels the more recent showdowns between the sides, who have been relatively even matched over the other in recent years, as the Old Gold have three wins and two defeats from their last five.
Vitor Pereira's men were too strong for a doomed Leicester in the 2024-25 campaign, prevailing 3-0 at the King Power and Molineux, the latter courtesy of a Matheus Cunha masterclass as the Brazilian scored once and set up two more.
The Foxes did the double over the Old Gold in the 2022-23 Premier League season, though, including a statement 4-0 victory at Molineux that year, although Wolves were victorious by two goals to one on their own patch in February 2022.
Furthermore, Leicester can proudly show off eight clean sheets from their 14 Premier League battles with Wolves; only against Southampton (nine) and Newcastle United (13) have they registered more shut-outs in the competition.
Outside of top-flight action, Wolves and Leicester memorably contested the 1949 FA Cup final, which the Old Gold won 3-1 against a Foxes side who had only just avoided relegation to the third tier that same season.
A 7-0 win for Leicester in the 1922-23 Division Two season remains their biggest margin of victory in this fixture to date, but Wolves annihilated their Midlands rivals 10-1 in the First Division in April 1938.
