Wolves Fixtures: A Turning Point in the 2025/26 Season

Introduction: Why Wolves Fixtures Matter Right Now

Wolverhampton Wanderers’ fixture list has become a focal point for fans and pundits alike as the club navigates a challenging 2025/26 Premier League campaign. Wolves kicked off their 2025/26 Premier League campaign at Molineux with Vitor Pereira’s side taking on Manchester City in their opening fixture, setting the tone for what would prove to be a difficult start to the season. Understanding the fixture schedule is crucial for supporters as the team fights to climb away from the relegation zone.

Recent Results: A Vital Victory

A convincing 3-0 victory for Wolves against a disoriented West Ham capitalized on their chances, controlled the tempo, and sealed a crucial win that could represent a turning point in their league campaign. The match on 3rd January 2026 saw an early goal from Jhon Arias followed by a Hwang Hee-Chan penalty and superb Mateus Mane strike, marking the club’s first Premier League win of the season. This breakthrough result came after a winless run extending to 19 games, providing much-needed relief for manager Rob Edwards and the Molineux faithful.

Key Upcoming Fixtures

The fixture schedule presents both challenges and opportunities for Wolves. The Molineux meet-up with City was set to take place at 5.30pm on Saturday 16th August, with the game broadcast live on Sky Sports, before Wolves travelled to AFC Bournemouth the following weekend. Looking ahead, the Christmas period will see Wolves head to Liverpool for a Boxing Day game at Anfield currently scheduled for Saturday 27th December, before staying in the north west to round out the calendar year with a second match against Man United at Old Trafford.

Season Context and Challenges

The 2025/26 campaign has tested Wolves significantly. On 2 November, Vítor Pereira was sacked after less than a year in charge with a 36.84% win ratio and a winless start to the Premier League season, where he lost 8 out of 10 Premier League games and had Wolves rock bottom in 20th. Ten days later, Rob Edwards was appointed as head coach from Middlesbrough, tasked with reversing the club’s fortunes.

Conclusion: Looking Ahead

The recent victory over West Ham could prove pivotal for Wolverhampton Wanderers. With all fixtures still subject to change and live televised fixtures yet to be decided, any fixture changes will be announced on wolves.co.uk and across the club’s social media channels as soon as they are confirmed. For supporters, monitoring the fixture list and attending matches has never been more important as the team seeks to build momentum and secure Premier League survival. The coming months will determine whether this victory marks the beginning of a sustained recovery or remains an isolated bright spot in a difficult season.
