Wolves will again be without Daniel Podence and Willy Boly when they host Southampton in the FA Cup fifth round.
Winger Podence and defender Boly missed last Sunday's 0-0 draw with Leicester and have been ruled out, but Rayan Ait-Nouri could return from injury.
Full-back Kyle Walker-Peters is available for Southampton after four games out with a thigh problem.
On-loan Liverpool attacker Takumi Minamino is unable to play under the terms of his move.
Will Smallbone (knee), Theo Walcott (thigh) and Alexandre Jankewitz (suspended) are out with Stuart Armstrong still doubtful with a muscle issue.
FA Cup fifth round on the BBC: How to watch
Southampton have lost four straight games in the Premier League, including a 9-0 defeat at Manchester United, but Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo will not take them lightly.
"All the teams during this season have tough, tough moments, but that doesn't take away the quality and the talent of the squad of Southampton," he said.
"It is a very talented squad, a very good manager. We know in football anything can change from one game to the other."
Nuno also confirmed that striker Raul Jimenez - who last played in November and is recovering from a fractured skull - is not yet back in full training.
"The consultation was really positive," he said.
"He is allowed to increase his intensity but he is still working by himself. The issue is contact, especially heading. All the measures are by himself. He is not allowed to have contact yet."
Saints manager Ralph Hasenhuttl said: "Wins in the cup are nice to have but don't really count sometimes I feel.
"It's a competition we are still part of and we want to go as far as possible in. For us it's a very important game."
Saints share the scoring - the stats
This will be the fifth FA Cup meeting between Wolves and Southampton, with each side winning twice in the previous four. Southampton won the last meeting 2-0 in March 2003, en route to reaching the final that season.
Wolves have lost just one of their last 10 meetings with Southampton in all competitions (W5 D4), with their league meeting with Saints at Molineux this season ending 1-1.
Wolves are looking to reach the FA Cup quarter-final for the second time in the last three seasons, having done so in just one of the previous 20 campaigns in the competition.
Southampton knocked out holders Arsenal 1-0 in the last round - only once in the Premier League era have Saints eliminated top-flight opposition in consecutive rounds before, doing so in 2017-18 en route to the semi-final (Watford and West Brom).
Wolves have won both of their FA Cup matches 1-0 this season, and are looking to keep three consecutive clean sheets in the competition for the first time since February 1976 (four in a row).
Southampton's past 10 FA Cup goals have been scored by different players, including an own goal in their victory against Arsenal in the fourth round.

Of course I am but then we see Nuno saying exactly what a few of us have all season. Got slated for saying it a week ago but nice to know yet again Nuno isn't dodging the problem.

I had my COVID jab today. Received a text from the Health Centre, phoned the number, and was invited up straight away. The nurse said "Just a little pr!ck" - to which I replied, "I didn't come here to be insulted". I asked afterwards if I was getting a sticker or something, and she gave me one that said "I've been very brave" with a cartoon tiger face. Obviously meant for kids...

Good to hear they are getting through the numbers well. Be surprised if we have had ours by summer. I may even just come home and get mine if I can get the missus done as well.

Had my first jab a couple of weeks ago. Once I’ve had the second I’ll be asking why I can’t go to the Molineux in May
We play Brighton at home on the 8th and Spurs away on the 12th. Exactly the last two fixtures I saw last season just before this lockdown lark started

Yes I got the words wrong when I paraphrased (before Wolfie jumps on me).

No way I'll jump on you Butey. Well, maybe if you get new underwear.
