Team News

Wolves
Watford
  • Wolves are now without their first and second choice right-backs with Ki-Jana Hoever joining Nelson Semedo on the sidelines.
  • Jonny came off the bench and had to play on the right-hand side of Wolves' defence at the weekend but he is a left-back.
  • Pedro Neto started Saturday's defeat to Crystal Palace but will likely rotate out of the side here given he has only just returned from a serious injury.
  • Raul Jimenez and Rayan Ait-Nouri should return to the starting XI after dropping to the bench at the weekend.
  • Roy Hodgson will hope to welcome back Joshua King on Thursday after he missed their 3-2 defeat to Arsenal through injury on Sunday.
  • Cucho Hernandez should keep his place in attack even if King does return as he was the WhoScored Man of the Match against Arsenal with a goal and assist.
  • William Troost-Ekong and Jeremy Ngakia are new faces on the sidelines for Watford, though the Hornets did at least recover Kiko Femenia on Sunday.
  • Tom Cleverley was at fault for one of the goals Arsenal scored and he may lose his place in the side as a result.

Prediction

  • Wolves have lost three in a row and suddenly find themselves eight points off four spot.
  • Watford fought hard against Arsenal on Sunday but lost 3-2. Despite struggling for wins under Roy Hodgson, the Hornets are still only three points from safety.
  • Watford have only lost one of their last five away from home and there have only been four goals scored in those matches.
