Stoke City face a trip to Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux on Tuesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Potters will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 40 and win only 12 of the 69 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in March 2005, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a Championship match.
