THE PREDICTION
Wolves have picked up two wins in a row since the restart and they are quietly sneaking up to challenge for the Champions League places. They have beaten West Ham and Bournemouth without conceding a single goal so far and they will be confident of keeping another here against a relatively toothless Villa side. The hosts scraped a point against Newcastle on Tuesday but this is a different proposition. Wolves are a class above and Nuno Espirito Santo’s well-drilled side can plunge them into further relegation trouble here. Away win.
