The 2018–19 season was the 141st in the history of Wolverhampton Wanderers and the 2nd under then-head coach Nuno Espírito Santo. In that season, they returned to the Premier League for the first time since being relegated in 2012 via winning the previous season's EFL Championship. They also reached their first knockout competition semi-final in 21 years through their participation in the FA Cup semi-finals.

The club finished in 7th place, their highest position in the English league system since 1979–80 and the highest of any newly-promoted team since Ipswich Town finished 5th in the 2000–01 season.[1] As a result of Manchester City winning all 3 domestic trophies on offer that season, this league position gained them a place in the UEFA Europa League second qualifying round, invoking the club's first continental participation since the 1980–81 season.[2]
