📆 Saturday 30th November
🕒 3pm
🏟 Molineux Stadium
A fixture that Im sure both sides would look at and think "We can win that".
Two squads that you look at and think, man for man Wolves have the edge here.
Two young coaches with similar levels of experience, indeed one sacked and replaced by the other.
Last season, two away victories in this fixture, though the overall head to head is rare one in the PL where Wolves edge out the opposition, W4D2L2. Wolves come in to the game on the back of two wins, Bournemouth on two defeats, yet two of their 4 wins were against Man City & Arsenal.
Sarabia, Dawson, Bueno & Johnstone return to the squad after missing the Fulham game, which will give O'Neil a decision or two to make after the way things fell nicely in to place last weekend.
Difficult one to call, every point counts and its another must win home game for me, 2-1.

Winning the last two games has eased the pressure on Wolves and seen the return of some optimism. But it will take more than two wins to climb out of the relegation dogfight. The five games leading up to Christmas sees us play the four teams directly above us in the league and the one team directly below us. A great chance to take a big step in the right direction but the danger of a big step back into the mire for the club and the manager if it doesn’t go well.
Last week we got our best result of the season so far with Lemina and Toti as the centre backs. Will GON stick with that or bring back Dawson and/or Bueno to give a more regular defensive set up. An advantage of playing Lemina at the back is that it allows Andre back into the team who is far too good a player to sit on the bench. Think I would go with;
Sa
Bueno, Lemina, Toti
Semedo, Andre, Gomes, Ait Nouri
Bellegarde, Larsen, Cunha
