* The home side have won all their games this season by margins of just one goal.

* Wolves are one of only three teams to have won every division - Burnley and Preston are the two.

* They were also the first team to use floodlights in a game.

* Mick McCarthy's men have only managed wins this season against teams in the top seven and local rivals.

* Blackpool have done the double over Liverpool this season.

* The Seasiders' biggest win of the season was 4-0 against Wigan Athletic.

* DJ Campbell is the club's leading scorer with nine goals in the current campaign.

PROBABLE LINE-UPS

Wolves: Hennessey; Elokobi, Berra, Stearman, Zubar; Foley, Henry, Milijas, O'Hara, Jarvis; Doyle.

Blackpool: Kingson; Eardley, Evatt, Baptiste, Cathcart; Vaughan, Sylvestre, Southern, Kornilenko; Campbell, Beattie.

Prediction
Wolves tend to do well in their last 11 games of the season and will be looking to continue that run against Blackpool.

The Black Country side will be looking to bounce back from their dissapointment at conceding a late goal in the local derby with West Brom last weekend.

Blackpool will be without the influential Charlie Adam and Wolves will seek to take advantage of this.
