Goal Statistics

Wolverhampton Wanderers's fans will be hoping for goals on Saturday lunch time, not least because Stoke City have conceded in each of their last 8 Championship games. A PG of 1.9 for P. da Silva Peixoto's side suggests that run should continue.

Goals have been an issue for Stoke City of late. It has been 8 Championship matches since they last scored more than 1, and a PG of 1.0 suggests they'll struggle to end that run on Saturday lunch time against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
