Wolves are set to take on Bournemouth this Saturday in hopes of securing their third consecutive win in the Premier League.
Last weekend, Gary O’Neil’s team had an impressive 4-1 victory over Fulham following their earlier win against Southampton. This string of wins has pushed Wolves out of the relegation zone, but they still have work to do to secure their place in the league.
Bournemouth, on the other hand, suffered a 2-1 defeat against Brighton and will be without Antoine Semenyo due to suspension. Striker Evanilson, who Wolves had tried to sign in 2022, will be looking to make an impact in this match.
O’Neil is aiming for a rare three-game winning streak and will be pleased to have some key players returning to training. Goalkeeper Sam Johnstone and defenders Santi Bueno and Craig Dawson were absent last week, forcing O’Neil to make some changes in the lineup.
With Johnstone and Bueno back in training, O’Neil will have some decisions to make for the starting lineup. Jose Sa will continue in goal, while Dawson and Bueno could form a back three alongside Toti Gomes. Nelson Semedo and Rayan Ait-Nouri will likely play as wing-backs.
In midfield, O’Neil faces a selection dilemma with Joao Gomes, Andre, and Mario Lemina all vying for a spot. Pablo Sarabia, if fit, could come into the forward trio alongside Matheus Cunha and Jorgen Strand Larsen.
Wolves predicted lineup against Bournemouth: Sa; Bueno, Dawson, Toti; Semedo, Gomes, Lemina, Ait-Nouri; Sarabia, Cunha, Strand Larsen.
