Wolves team news: Strand Larsen to be involved
Jean-Ricner Bellegarde's return from injury adds to Rob Edwards' options, but defender Ladislav Krejci could miss out with flu.
Despite seemingly being on a move away from the club, Edwards has confirmed that Jorgen Strand Larsen will be in the squad.
Predicted XI (3-4-2-1): Sa; Mosquera, S. Bueno, Agbadou; Tchatchoua, J. Gomes, Andre, Mane, H. Bueno; Arias, Hwang
Unavailable: Toti (Fitness), Chiwome (Injured)
Questionable: Krejci (Illness)
Bournemouth team news: Rayan to make Cherries debut?
Andoni Iraola is definitely without at least eight injured players for the trip to the west midlands, with David Brooks likely to be a ninth if he doesn't recover in time from his twisted ankle.
New signing Rayan is available for selection and is poised to be included in the matchday squad.
Predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Petrovic; Smith, Hill, Senesi, Truffert; Scott, Cook; Jimenez, Kroupi Jr, Adli; Evanilson
Unavailable: Dennis (Injured), Milosavljevic (Injured), Akinmobi (Injured), Soler (Injured), Adams (Injured), Tavernier (Injured), Kluivert (Injured), Gannon Doak (Injured)
Questionable: Brooks (Injured)
Wolves vs Bournemouth prediction
Wolves' five-match unbeaten run in all competitions was ended last weekend by Man City, who were 2-0 victors at the Etihad.
Despite their recent upturn in results, Wolves are still a mammoth 17 points from safety and it would take something of a miracle for Edwards to drag them out of danger this season.
Bournemouth continue to pick up results despite recently losing several key attacking assets to either injury (Justin Kluivert, Marcus Tavernier) or player sales (Antoine Semenyo).
Last weekend saw the Cherries claim a dramatic 3-2 win over Liverpool, with Amine Adli scoring the winner in the 95th minute.
Bournemouth are still scoring plenty of goals but Wolves, despite last week's defeat, are playing with more confidence at the moment. We expect there to be goals in this one.
Wolves vs Bournemouth tip: Over 2.5 goals
