Wolves are taking on Manchester United today in the Premier League and are going in pursuit of a fifth straight Premier League win.
In recent weeks, Wolves have pulled clear of the relegation zone and now go into this game under no pressure.
Wolves are 14 points clear of the relegation zone with just six games left to play, and mathematical safety will soon be confirmed.
Vitor Pereira has done a stellar job so far, and has completely changed the mood at Molineux in recent weeks.
It’s a far cry from earlier in the season when Gary O’Neil was in charge, and there is now a genuine belief that Pereira can bring the good times back to Wolves.
Wolves face Manchester United today, and club legend Steve Bull is adamant Pereria and the players must ensure one thing doesn’t happen.
Steve Bull warns Wolves not to be complacent against Manchester United
Wolves are full of confidence at the moment.
The win over Spurs was Wolves’ fourth in a row in the Premier League, which was the first time the club have managed that in their history.
United have been erratic at best this season, and this game does represent a genuinely good chance for three more points.
But Bull has warned in his latest E&S column that Wolves must not show complacency today.
He said: “I’m not worried about United’s Europa League comeback on Thursday, let’s focus on what Wolves can do and we’re flying at the moment.
“We have to approach this game with the same mindset as our recent games – if we are complacent we will lose it, don’t let anyone relax!
“But if we do our job, we are more than capable of winning this game.
“We’re playing with confidence and thriving at the moment, but we will be knocked off our perch if we are complacent in our approach.”
Pereira could be forced into changes against United. Jean-Ricner Bellegarde is a doubt ahead of the game, so Matheus Cunha could start. Cunha has the chance to make history against United by becoming only the third Brazilian player to hit 15 Premier League goals in a single season.
Vitor Pereira will not allow complacency for Man United clash
Wolves may now be safe, but it’s hard to see Pereira taking his foot off the gas.
He’ll want to make it five straight wins, and to get Wolves as high up the table as possible.
There are still 18 points to play for, and Wolves genuinely could move up a couple more places before the season is out.
He’s going to drum into the players the same messages he has been doing for the last few weeks, and will want another big scalp, having already overseen a win for Wolves against United in the reverse fixture back at Molineux.
