WOLVERHAMPTON, England (AP) — In-form Ivan Toney struck again as Brentford beat Wolverhampton 2-0 in the Premier League on Saturday.

A third goal in four games since the striker’s return from his ban for breaching betting regulations added to Christian Norgaard’s first-half header at Molineux.

The Bees earned just their third win in 12 league games and gained revenge for Wolves’ 4-1 victory in December that dumped them out of the FA Cup last month.

Pedro Neto twice hit the post and Craig Dawson had a goal disallowed for offside but Wolves failed to score at Molineux in the league for the first time in a year.

Brentford climbed to 14th following a first away win since October. Wolves is in 10th.
