Match Preview The Villa-Wolves rivalry does not hold the bitterness that Villa-Birmingham or Wolves-West Brom does, but there is certainly an edge to the game because of the location of the two clubs. There is added pressure this time round, too, as the pair enter a final push for a return to the Premier League. "Wolves are a very, very good side who have been there to be shot at from the start of the season, " Steve Bruce told reporters ahead of the game. "But the only thing that bothers me is how to beat them. " Villa fell to a 2-0 defeat in the reverse fixture earlier in the season but have not been beaten twice in the same season by Wolves since the1962-63 campaign, when both teams were in the top flight.
