On a glorious day such as today, with temperatures expected to reach nearly 25 Degrees, Wolves travel to a ground they haven’t won in 3 games, last winning in November 2002. Expectations are high in both camps, with Coventry needing the win to secure Championship survival, while Wolves need the win to aid with their Play-Off push. Nerves are going to be at a maximum – it’s guaranteed!
