Team News

Wolves
Leeds
  • Nuno Espirito Santo remains without injured trio Willy Boly, Raul Jimenez and Daniel Podence.
  • However, the Wolves boss has no fresh injury issues to contend with, which is a boost.
  • Santo could name the same XI that started the 2-1 win at Southampton, which would see Willian Jose lead the charge once more.
  • Mateusz Klich and Diego Llorente are both available for Leeds but Kalvin Phillips is set to miss out once again.
  • With Pascal Struijk required to cover for Phillips, Llorente's availability would allow Luke Ayling to move back to right-back.
  • However, Llorente has endured a nightmare run with injuries since joining Leeds so it wouldn't be a surprise if he only made the bench on Friday.

Prediction

  • After an eight-game winless run, Wolves have now won two of their last three league matches as they seek to enjoy a strong second half to the campaign. However, they have won just four home league matches this season, a record they need to improve upon.
  • A 4-2 defeat at Arsenal means Leeds have won six and lost five of their last 11 league matches and they currently sit two points ahead of Wolves in the table. Three wins in five on the road is a positive ahead of the trip to Molineux.
  • Wolves have won their last four meetings with Leeds, including a 1-0 win at Elland Road back in October, and Santo will likely again set his side up to frustrate the Whites, a tactic that could deliver another three points here.

  • over a year without goal for Traore in PL. 4-1 and maybe Traore to score

  • @alxdru - Even when he scores he doesn't score!

  • @alxdru so close

  • Lots of goals

  • Home win. Phillips is an irreplaceable player for Leeds. Plus, their defense system is really vulnerable to players like Traore and Neto.

  • @NHJ I guess you forgot Raphinha and Bamford. These two players alone are enough to smash the Wolves.

  • @arisvi - Good players, but not irreplacable. Raphinha in particular only played half of league minutes, because they also have Costa, Harrison and Poveda-Campo for the same position. Rodrigo and Roberts are also forwards if Bamford got injured. But there's nobody that can naturally play the same position that Phillips does, let alone with the same style.

  • 1-0

  • Leeds comfortably wins the match.

  • 2-1

  • 4-3

  • 3-2

  • Wolves - Leeds 2:1(1:0)
