Julen Lopetegui's side will arrive at Old Trafford on Monday, August 14 as the season gets underway, with a kick-off time set for 8pm. The game is due to be broadcast on Sky.

Wolves recently travelled there last season when they lost 2-0 to Erik ten Hag's on May 13.

The first home game of 2023/24 will then see Wolves host Brighton on Saturday, August 19.

August finishes with a trip to Everton before a mid-week Carabao Cup second round clash that is yet to be drawn.

Wolves' first game against Premier League newcomers Luton comes on Saturday, September 23 when they travel to face Rob Edwards' side.

The first West Midlands Derby of the season then comes on Saturday, October 7 when Villa travel to Molineux.

From August until the end of November, Wolves face a tough run of home games against Brighton, Liverpool, Manchester City, Villa, Newcastle and Spurs. Considering how important the home form was to keeping Wolves in the Premier League last season, and how poor their away form was all season, the club will need to pick up points at Molineux to make a good start to the upcoming campaign.

The busy festive period starts on Saturday, December 2 when Wolves travel to Arsenal, before a home game with Burnley just three days later.

They then welcome Forest before travelling to West Ham, and could face a Carabao Cup fifth round fixture on December 20.

With the fixtures piling up, Wolves then welcome Chelsea to Molineux on Saturday, December 23 before travelling to Brentford on Boxing Day.

December ends with a home clash against Everton on Saturday, December 30 and the New Year starts with a possible FA Cup third round tie on January 6, followed by a potential Carabao Cup semi-final first leg on Wednesday, January 10.

The first Premier League game of 2024 will see Wolves travel to Brighton on Saturday, January 13, but that game could be moved depending on cup fixtures.

A tough end to January and start to February will see Wolves play Manchester United at home and travel to both Chelsea and Spurs in less than three weeks

Wolves' trip to Villa Park comes on Saturday, March 30, before what is likely to be a feisty clash with Forest at Molineux on Saturday, April 13.

Lopetegui's side will have a tough run-in in when they travel to Manchester City on Saturday May 4, then play Palace at home the following week, before finishing the season at Liverpool on Sunday, May 19.

That fixture at Anfield is the same final day Wolves experienced at the end of the 2021/22 season under Bruno Lage.
