Colin Murray presents highlights of today's two Premier League matches which see relegation threatened Wolves host title chasing Manchester United and high-flying Newcastle take on Norwich. United were comprehensive 4-1 winners when Wolves visited Old Trafford in December - but the Molineux faithful will remember last season's fixture when the men in gold inflicted a first league defeat of the season on Sir Alex Ferguson's side, a result which lifted Wolves off the bottom of the table, and proved vital in their narrow escape from relegation. The Midlands side, who last month sacked Mick McCarthy and gave his assistant Terry Connor the top job until the end of the season, are in another relegation battle in this campaign - and another famous victory could once again prove crucial. Newcastle have had a brilliant season under manager Alan Pardew and a win today would keep up their hopes of qualifying for European football. Norwich likewise have been outstanding this season - and since gaining promotion have won many friends in the Premier League for their brand of quality football played under their inspirational manager Paul Lambert. In December, Norwich beat Newcastle 4-2 with striker Grant Holt leading the way with two goals, so a win today would complete a memorable double for the Canaries. Dion Dublin joins Colin in the studio to analyse those two games and to review the previous day's action from the Premier League
