Wolves will meet with old League One rivals Shrewsbury Town in the FA Cup on Sunday. Interestingly, both teams are battling relegation in their respective league, and will at least be looking for positive news in this single leg Round 3 meeting. Let's get into our match prediction below.
The Old Gold have looked much sharper in recent games, with their first EPL win of the season coming against West Ham (3-0). Wolves are now unbeaten in their last three games, drawing the other two 1-1 away from home to Man United and Everton. And this is just the second time Wolves are going unbeaten in three games this season.
They'll be looking to extend that record against League Two side Shrewsbury Town, a team they haven't lost to in their last four competitive meetings. The Shrews, on the other hand, remain in very poor form, with four straight losses and no wins in their last six games.
But Shrewsbury Town can at least say they're unbeaten in half of their last eight games. Still, performances in their latest outings have dipped, with the latest 3-0 loss to Bristol Rovers marking goals conceded and one scored in four straight defeats.

Our Wolves vs Shrewsbury Town Prediction
While the betting odds suggest that Wolves are poised to net multiple against a team three divisions lower, we don't expect too many. Notably, Wolverhampton have scored just 15 EPL goals this season, the 11th-fewest of all the teams in Europe’s top-five league.
Their opponents, Shrewsbury Town, have also scored the second-fewest in League Two. With both teams entering with a glaring scoring problem, hitting four total match goals seems like a stretch. Hence, our Wolves vs Shrewsbury Town prediction is Under 3.5 Goals.
