Wolverhampton Wanderers Clinch Promotion

In a special EFL Championship addition to the Saturday Roundup, a 1-1 draw between Fulham and Brentford means first-place Wolves are returning to the Premier League for the first time since 2012. A 90th-minute goal by Brentford’s Neal Maupay was the goal to send Wolves to the top flight. Wolves sit on 92 points in 42 matches in the Championship this season. Their last season in the EPL was a forgettable one with a last-place finish. They lost 23 times that season.

Wolves haven’t lost in over a month and will host Birmingham City tomorrow and likely a promotion party at Molineux Stadium. Cardiff City is currently second-place in the Championship, sitting one point ahead of Fulham. Aston Villa, Middlesborough, and Millwall round out the top six.
