The midfield quartet was made up of Nélson Semedo, João Gomes, André, and Rayan Aït-Nouri and finished off with a front three of Marshall Munetsi, Jørgen Strand Larsen, and Jean-Ricner Bellegarde. Strand Larsen’s goal secured all three points, while Wolves’ defense held firm to earn a clean sheet. Wolves Recent Form And Tactics Wolves have picked up form at a crucial time, securing back-to-back wins, including a 2-1 win over fellow strugglers Southampton and a 1-0 victory over West Ham .
These results have given them breathing room in the relegation battle. Manager Pereira has opted for a 4-3-2-1 setup, emphasising defensive stability while relying on quick transitions in attack.

Enso Gonzalez, Sasa Kalajdzic, Yerson Mosquera, and Leon Chiwome remain on the sidelines with long-term injuries.
