Wolves Form

They had previously suffered two straight 1-0 defeats against the league’s top two Liverpool and Manchester City.

Wolves Team News

Wolves look set to be without defensive duo Jonny and Yerson Mosquera. Neto is also sidelined through injury, while Hee-Chan Hwang and Rayan Ait Nouri are fitness doubts.

A 1-1 draw against a severely weakened Everton team last time out means that Thomas Tuchel’s team have won just one of their last four games in all competitions.
