Wolves began their Premier League journey under Vitor Pereira with a commanding 3-0 win against Leicester City. This victory marked their first-ever top-flight success at the King Power Stadium. Pereira, who took over from Gary O'Neil earlier this week, saw his team quickly adapt and perform impressively.

The match featured goals from Goncalo Guedes and Rodrigo Gomes, which gave Wolves control in the Midlands derby. Matheus Cunha added another before halftime, sealing the game against Leicester, who experienced their first home loss under Ruud van Nistelrooy. This win allowed Wolves to surpass Ipswich Town, moving them to 18th place and just two points behind Leicester in 17th.

This triumph was significant for Wolves as it was their first Premier League away win against Leicester after six unsuccessful attempts. The victory also marked only the third time Wolves have won by three or more goals away from home in the league.

Additionally, Wolves achieved their first Premier League away clean sheet since a goalless draw with Brighton in January. This ended a streak of 17 away matches without a clean sheet.

Pereira's debut as manager could not have been more successful, as his team delivered an impressive performance. The result not only boosted morale but also improved their standing in the league table.

Wolves' decisive win against Leicester City demonstrated their potential under new management. With this momentum, they aim to continue climbing up the Premier League standings.
