Player(s) to watch:
- Matheus Cunha is going to play an important role in the attacking front for the hosts. In 15 Premier League appearances this season, he has scored three goals and has an assist to his name. Even though Matheus Cunha has not been able to find the net many times, he has been an absolute threat to the opponent’s defence by creating chances.
- Jørgen Strand Larsen has not been in top form this season, but he is going to play an important role in the final third for the Wolverhampton Wanderers. He has only scored one goal in the English top division and will be looking to step up his game. Jørgen Strand Larsen will be an important aspect of the squad.
