Wolves ended a six-game winless run in the Premier League and piled pressure on relegation-threatened Luton with victory at Molineux.

Hwang Hee-chan scored his first club goal since 27 December to put Wolves in front late in the first half after both sides had struggled to find a way out of midfield.

The South Korea forward netted with the help of a deflection off defender Teden Mengi just 18 seconds after Carlton Morris was unable to convert Luton's best opportunity of the opening 45 minutes, heading straight at Jose Sa.

Wolves showed intent after the break and it took just five minutes to double their advantage when Toti Gomes found space to head in at the far post.

Gary O'Neil's side dominated the second half with Boubacar Traore, Nelson Semedo and Rayan Ait-Nouri spurning good opportunities to make life even more comfortable.

Morris gave Luton hope of a grandstand finish when he volleyed in from six yards, but they could not find any further joy.

The win moved Wolves up to 10th and just three points behind eighth-placed West Ham, with Luton remaining 18th and one point - plus a hefty goal difference deficit - shy of 17th-placed Nottingham Forest.
