Best League Win: 10-1 V Leicester
City 15/04/1938 Division 2
Last meeting: Norwich City 1,
Wolves 1 (December 29, 2007): Jamie
Cureton’s eighth goal of the
season stretched Norwich City’s
unbeaten run to six matches as they
came from behind to take a point against
Wolves at Carrow Road. The visitors
had taken the lead six minutes into
the second half when Andy Keogh, unmarked,
scored with a simple header from a
cross by Michael Gray. But Cureton
levelled the score after 74 minutes,
firing home from a knockdown by substitute
Dion Dublin. Full

Last Norwich away win:
13/09/1995 Wolves 0, Norwich City
2 (Johnson, Ward)
Chances: McCarthy
has been going quietly about his work
in the Black Country and the Wolves
are now a force to be reckoned with.
Narrowly missed the play-offs last
time and a shortage of goals seems
to have been solved by the arrival
of Sylvan Ebanks-Blake. However, their
fans are notoriously impatient, even
fickle, and the pressure will be on
for McCarthy to cap his good work
to date with a play-off place at the
very least.
