Wolves vs Shrewsbury Form Analysis

Safe to say that the first Premier League victory against West Ham was a very welcomed one for both Rob Edwards and Wolves. They know that survival this season would be nothing short of a miracle, so the thought of a potenital cup run will look appealing and the visit of Shrewsbury should be standard procedure for the home side. Wolves have scored ten goals in ten home league matches this season, whilst conceding 23 in this time.

Shrewsbury aren't exactly having the greatest of times themselves. Four consecutive league defeats raises concerns for manager Michael Appleton, as his side sit just two points adrift of the relegation places. Shrewsbury defeated Sutton United away from home in the second round to progress and know they have a tough task on their hands if they wish to get past this stage for the first time since 2019/2020.

The two sides met in this competition in the 2018/2019 season, where Wolves managed a 3-2 aggregate victory over two legs.

Wolves vs Shrewsbury Key Players to Watch

Jhon Arias (Wolves) Arias had a slow start to life in Wolves colours but has shown his quality as of late and scored his first for the club in the victory against West Ham. This is another opportunity to add to his tally for the club.

Sam Clucas (Shrewsbury Town) The veteran of the side. Clucas has been around forever now and his experienced head will be crucial if Shrewsbury were to pull of a shock result here.
