Breaking Down Wolves’ 2025/26 Fixtures
After an up-and-down campaign last year, Wolves’ 2025/26 Premier League fixture list has finally been revealed. The season begins with a tough stretch of matches but ends with a potentially easier run. Wolves will need to stay focused throughout if they want to improve on last year’s performance. With Vítor Pereira set for his first full season in charge, there is real potential to push for a European spot and maybe even the title.
Wolves will waste no time being tested, opening the season at Molineux against Manchester City. The early schedule doesn’t get much easier, with trips to Bournemouth and Newcastle followed by matches against Everton and newly promoted Leeds United. These opening fixtures will undoubtedly set the tone for the season, and Wolves should be aiming for at least three wins, a draw, and one loss in that stretch. With such a tough start, capitalizing on every winnable moment will be key to building early momentum.
As the season moves into its middle stretch, Wolves will face a mix of winnable fixtures and tough tests against some of the league’s giants. Key matchups against Chelsea, Liverpool, Aston Villa, and Nottingham Forest will challenge the squad in every aspect. Other clashes against Sunderland, Burnley, and Fulham present real opportunities to pick up points and build momentum. This is often the stage where teams begin to separate, and last year, Wolves sat in 19th place during this period. They eventually finished 16th, just three points off 14th, showing how tight the table can be. If Wolves can take advantage of this stretch, a genuine push for European qualification is well within reach.
The final stretch of the season may look manageable, but Wolves cannot afford to take anything for granted. Fixtures against Leeds United, West Ham, Tottenham, and Burnley could be difficult, especially if those teams are battling for safety or fighting for late momentum. This is the point in the season when focus and composure matter most. Wolves must finish strong, playing with intensity and clear minds if they hope to reach their goal.
With a full season ahead under Vítor Pereira, Wolves have every reason to aim higher than last year. The schedule presents challenges, but also plenty of opportunities to grow, compete, and earn results. Every stretch of the campaign will require focus, teamwork, and consistency. If Wolves stay locked in from start to finish, this could be the season that marks their return to European football.
