Tim Robinson Appointed Referee for Leeds United vs Wolves Match

Leeds return to Elland Road on the back of a landmark 2-1 win at Manchester United. Noah Okafor scored twice in the first half to secure the club’s first league win at Old Trafford since 1981.

Match officials

Tim Robinson has been appointed to referee the Leeds United versus Wolves match. He will be assisted by Lee Betts and Mat Wilkes.

Lewis Smith is the fourth official. Nick Hopton will operate on VAR for the fixture.

Robinson’s season so far

Across 2025/26 Robinson has refereed nine Premier League games. He has also taken charge of seven Championship matches.

In top-flight games he averages 22.89 fouls and four yellow cards per match. That record marks him as slightly stricter than many colleagues.

Previous links to both clubs

Robinson refereed Leeds’ 2-0 defeat at Burnley in October. Injuries left Jack Harrison and Brenden Aaronson as the only wide options for that game.

He has overseen two Wolves matches this season. Both were bottom-of-the-table meetings with Nottingham Forest.

Leeds: momentum and selection

Daniel Farke’s side moved six points clear of Tottenham in 18th place after the Manchester United victory. They can go nine clear before Spurs play Brighton later on Saturday.

Home form has been strong overall. The team must replicate Monday’s display to build further momentum.

Wolves: relegation picture

Wolves face the real possibility of relegation this weekend. Their last match was a 4-0 loss at West Ham.

That defeat extended a run to 16 away games without a win. The club now approaches this fixture under heavy pressure.

Looking ahead

Leeds will want a clean, controversy-free afternoon from the officials. They also seek to impose themselves on a side close to relegation.

Matches against Wolves and Burnley at Elland Road are seen as chances to move away from danger. Neither fixture, however, should be taken for granted.
