You have to give credit to Leeds boss Javi Gracia so far, his game plan has worked a treat. The visitors have started both halves in swift fashion and earned a two-goal cushion because of it. They can sense a huge three points here.

Right then, what have Wolves got in them now? They will not quite be sure how they are two goals down but that's the situation they find themselves in. The typically packed Leeds away end is absolutely buzzing by contrast to the hushed tones of the home fans.

GOOOO-NO! Wolves thought they had the equaliser! Collins rises high to head Sarabia's corner, but Lemina - stood clearly in an offside position - gets in the way to poke home. Might that have been going in had he not got in front of the ball?

This one remains wide open, though, stick with us to see if Wolves can forge an equaliser in the second half or if Leeds can secure a huge three points in a huge relegation battle.

Boos ring around Molineux, although you would have to assume that's more out of frustration towards referee Michael Salisbury. Leeds have the lead after a frenetic start resulted in Gnonto teeing up Harrison but Wolves will definitely feel Firpo clipped Semedo shortly after. Wolves have largely been in the ascendancy since, yet it is the visitors who have something to protect in the second half.

Bamford takes the free-kick he won and...wow...that is...not good. Two very presentable opportunities for Leeds from free-kicks in the last few minutes have failed to yield anything even slightly resembling an effort on target.
Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Leeds United
15:44 , admin
Another big moment in this game here, is Dawson lucky to still be on the pitch? He's tangling and tussling with Bamford, who wins the foul. Maybe the Leeds striker was doing just a little too much to try and get the Wolves defender sent off.

15:42 , admin
After all the delay, Roca eventuall steps up to take the free-kick but it's a poor effort that gets nowhere near Sa's goal.

That's a nicely worked corner routine from Leeds, as Roca's deep delivery finds the on-rushing McKennie but his strike is blocked.

Kilman is having a great job for Wolves. A former futsal player, the defender shows great feet in the Leeds box before Roja eventually gets a foot in to alleviate the danger.

15:33 , admin
Close again for Wolves. This time it's Neves who sees a dipping 25-yard effort go wide of the left post. The home side are huffing and puffing but thus far can not blow down the resolute Leeds door.

15:32 , admin
Leeds have struggled to trouble the Wolves goal since that bright start, but they will be more than happy to try and soak up this pressure and hit on the counter.
Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Leeds United
15:30 , admin
Wolves have had 66% of the possession so far here, but thus far Leeds are doing just enough to maintain their advantage.
Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Leeds United
15:29 , admin
CHANCE! Oh that's a big, big moment in this game. Kilman plays a superb ball across the face of goal that Leeds struggle to defend. It eventually falls to Neto, but Wober makes an incredible block to Wolves at bay.

Wolves have won three of their past four home league games (L1), more than they had in their previous 12 (W2 D3 L7). All five of their home league wins this season have been to nil, though, with Wolves winless in their last 10 league games in which they've conceded at Molineux (D2 L8).

15:21 , admin
The hosts are starting to enjoy a fair bit of possession but credit to Leeds, who are hassling and pressing like a herd of Bison to keep Wolves at bay.
Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Leeds United
15:21 , admin
Still behind approaching 20 minutes at Molineux.
We're on the front foot looking for a way back into it, our best chance coming through Podence on the left. His powerful shot is parried by Illan Meslier and Neto just can't fire home on the rebound. #COYW pic.twitter.com/slDn3Tw6lw— Wolves (@Wolves) March 18, 2023

After that electric start, the game has cooled down just a touch, which will suit Leeds down to the ground. Wolves' attackers look capable of creating something, though.
Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Leeds United
15:17 , admin
A clumsy foul from Firpo on Neto leaves to a free-kick in a promising area for Wolves. Podence's delivery does find Dawson, but Ayling does well and the Wolves centre-back can only head harmlessly over the crossbar.
Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Leeds United
15:15 , admin
It's been a breathtaking start here. An early goal, a penalty shout, and Wolves clearing from near their own goalline. Full-throttle Premier League action at Molineux so far today.

Wolves have certainly tried to up the tempo following that early setback, Lopetegui was understandably frustrated by the failure to award his side a penalty. Shortly after Meslier has to made a smart stop from Podence, Leeds have a storm to weather here.
Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Leeds United
15:11 , admin
That's a huge call early on in this game. Firpo looks to have made contact with Semedo on the edge of the area but a VAR check deems no foul has taken place. Wolves can feel very hard done by there.

Some nice interplay from Wolves in midfield, though little to trouble to Leeds. Both teams are still sounding each other out here early doors.

It's been a decent start for Leeds, who have the first half-chance of the game but McKennie was leaning back and skews his half-volley high and wide.

Wolves note two alterations from the side that lost to Newcastle last time out, with Neto and Gomes replacing Traore and Moutinho, both of whom drop to the bench. Leeds also make two changes from the 2-2 home draw against Brighton,Tyler Adams is injured and is replaced by American compatriot McKennie, while Gnonto replaces Summerville in the starting XI.

You could be forgiven as a Leeds fan for not particularly being up for a trip to the west Midlands today. No side has fewer away wins (1) or away points (6) in the Premier League this season than Leeds, who have lost nine of their 13 away league games this term.

Meanwhile, Wolves are aiming to ease their own relegation fears and are out to rebound from last weekend's 2-1 reverse at Newcastle United. Julen Lopetegui's side start the day three points clear of the drop but have just one win in five.

Still, the visitors can take solace from winning the return fixture 2-1 way back in August. Victory here would see Leeds complete their first league double over Wolves since 2015-16, and first in the top flight since 1973-74.

It is starting to look a little desperate for Leeds, who have just one win in their past 13 Premier League matches, a run that has left them in 19th position - albeit only five points separate Crystal Palace in 12th from bottom-of-the-table Southampton.
