Wolves Preview: Frustrated again
Wolverhampton Wanderers come into this one on the back of another game in which key man Matheus Cunha scored but then combusted with a red card deep in extra-time away at AFC Bournemouth as the Cherries won the penalty shootout in their FA Cup fifth round tie.
In the league, Wolves have opened up a gap of five points between themselves and the bottom three and the relegation places. Their most recent league outing saw them beaten 2-1 by Fulham a few days after defeating the aforementioned Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium.
Everton Preview: Pushing up the table
Everton’s last league game saw them share a 1-1 draw with Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium in a game in which they went 1-0 down before half-time via Yoane Wissa before scoring a 77th equaliser courtesy of Ireland international defender Jake O’Brien.
The Toffees are now unbeaten in their last seven matches in the Premier League with David Moyes returning to Goodison Park and not only easing relegation concerns but even looking like getting his side to push up and towards the top-half of the table instead.
Wolves Team News: Cunha suspended again
Following the fairly major loss of his cool against Bournemouth last week, Matheus Cunha is now beginning a potentially pivotal three-match suspension for the hosts. They have been able to welcome back Emmanuel Agbadou, Rodrigo Gomes and Goncalo Guedes from injury, though.
Predicted XI (3-4-2-1): Sa; Doherty, Bueno, Agbadou; Semedo, Andre, J. Gomes, Ait-Nouri; Bellegarde, R. Gomes; Munetsi
Unavailable: Mosquera (Injured), Chiwome (Injured), Gonzalez (Injured), Cunha (Suspended), Kalajdzic (Injured)

Everton Team News: Broja closer
David Moyes has described Albania international striker Armando Broja as an 'outside chance' of being involved next week but is more likely to be back after the March international break. Seamus Coleman is also nearing a return but is not going to be rushed back.
Predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Pickford; O'Brien, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko; Garner, Gueye; Lindstrom, Doucoure, Harrison; Beto
Unavailable: Mangala (Injured), McNeil (Injured), Ndiaye (Injured), Broja (Injured), Calvert-Lewin (Injured)
Questionable: Coleman (Fitness)
Wolves vs Everton Prediction
Vitor Pereira will now be without Matheus Cunha and that is a major blow for Wolves because, whilst not necessarily a one-man team, they are more reliant on one individual than any other side in the Premier League. David Moyes has made Everton tough to beat and also made them a lot more capable going forward. They will fancy their chances of controlling a Cunha-less Wolves and siding with the Toffees to continue their strong form looks the way to go for this one at Molineux.
