Thomas Frank managed Rico Henry's workload in midweek by dropping him to the bench against Manchester United but he will return to the XI here. Sergi Canos will make way for Henry at left wing-back but he could swap over and take Mads Roerslev's place on the right. Kristoffer Ajer will hope for a recall after losing his place at centre-back to Mads Bech Sorensen. Alvaro Fernandez has a decent chance of an immediate reprieve after Jonas Lossl's less-than convincing display in goal against United. Ruben Neves missed out against Southampton at the weekend with COVID but is back in training and will be available here. With Romain Saiss and Willy Boly still unavailable, Toti could well keep his place at centre-back after making his Premier League debut at the weekend. Leander Dendoncker is an option in defence instead of Toti if Neves slots straight back into midfield on Saturday. Marcal remains a doubt after a knock kept him out against Southampton so Rayan Ait-Nouri should keep his place at left wing-back. Adama Traore scored his first goal of the season last weekend after coming off the bench in the win over Southampton. He will hope to be rewarded with a start here.
There have been under 2.5 goals scored in Wolves's last 6 away games (Premier League). Brentford have conceded at least 3 goals in their last 3 matches (Premier League). There have been over 2.5 goals scored in Brentford's last 4 games (Premier League). Brentford have lost 5 of their last 6 matches (Premier League).
Brentford lost 3-1 at home to Manchester United on Wednesday but were certainly the better side in the first half. Thomas Frank was fuming after the match and praised his players for a massive performance against United. Nevertheless, they have shipped three goals in back-to-back matches and have now lost five of their last six in the Premier League. Wolves beat Southampton 3-1 last weekend to make it three wins in a row and five without defeat in all competitions. They scored more goals against Southampton (3) than their previous nine league games combined (2). There has only been one team on the scoresheet in each of Wolves' last five away matches and they are certainly the team in form to take all three points in this fixture. 0:1
