Head-to-head record

Previous meetings: 115
Man Utd wins: 56
Draws: 20
Wolves wins: 39

Wolves and Man Utd have matched up a total of 115 times across all competitions, with the Red Devils leading the overall head-to-head record having registered 56 wins to the Old Gold's 39, while there have also been 20 stalemates between the two sides.

There was a long stretch where these two sides did not clash before Wolves returned to the Premier League in 2018, and the Old Gold initially proved to be something of a bogey team for Man Utd upon their return.

Under the guidance of Nuno Espirito Santo, Wolves remained undefeated against the Red Devils in their first two seasons back in the top flight, with one win and three draws.

The Old Gold also enjoyed a 2-1 FA Cup quarter-final triumph over Man Utd in 2018-19, courtesy of goals from Diogo Jota and Raul Jimenez, but the Red Devils avenged the defeat the following season with a 1-0 third-round replay victory after a 0-0 draw in the original meeting.

Wolves would go on to struggle in this fixture over the following seasons, winning only one and losing seven of their eight clashes between 2020-21 and 2023-24, including a blockbuster 4-3 defeat in February 2024.

Man Utd led 3-1 with 15 minutes remaining, but Max Kilman reduced the deficit before Pedro Neto scored what appeared to be the equaliser in the 95th-minute, only for the Red Devils to clinch a dramatic 97th-minute winner in classic Fergie-time fashion through a stunning solo effort by Kobbie Mainoo.

The Old Gold finally ended their dismal streak against Man Utd with a dominant 2-0 win earlier this season, with goals from Matheus Cunha and Hee-Chan Hwang handing Vitor Pereira his debut victory at Molineux, sinking Ruben Amorim's men.

Pereira's men stunned Old Trafford later that season too, sealing a 1-0 victory in Manchester to complete a league double over the Red Devils for the first time since 1980, thanks to Pablo Sarabia's wonderful free kick.
