and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
Before everyone went on their travels, Wolves recorded their first league win of the season. Pablo Sarabia and Matheus Cunha were on the target as they beat Southampton at Molineux.
The win moved Wolves ahead of Southampton and now a win coupled with results going in their favour could see them move out of the relegation zone. Below we round up the early injury news surrounding both sides.

Santiago Bueno is the latest injury concern after Wolves made a request to the Uruguay FA to recall him. He apparently reported for international duty with a muscle injury and played no part in their first match.
Yerson Mosquera and Enso Gonzalez have been ruled out for the remainder of the season. Surgery is said to have gone okay for Mosquera who suffered damage to medial collateral ligament (MCL) and the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) but he is out for the campaign.
Gonzalez’ season never started as he suffered his knee injury when playing in the Olympic Games. His injury happened in the summer and as of October, he was doing some gym work.
Sasa Kalajdzic was in a similar position to Gonzalez and Mosquera with a knee injury but he's closing in on a return. He's set to resume full training in the next three to four weeks. His ACL injury happened when he was out on loan at Eintracht Frankfurt, and so his last appearance for Wolves was 433 days.

Hide AdBoubacar Traore has been limited to just one appearance this season but is working towards a return. He's been doing some light training work, but the timeframe for him to return is still around Christmas.
An ankle ligament injury picked up whilst on international duty has put Hwang Hee-Chan out of action for the last couple of weeks. After not being called up to the South Korea squad, he will have used this fortnight to recover from his injury.
Out: Yerson Mosquera, Sasa Kalajdzic, Enso Gonzalez, and Bastien Meupiyou. Doubt: Santiago Bueno, and Hwang Hee-Chan.


Fulham team news
Sasa Lukic is expected to be out until late November according to our friends at London World. The 28-year-old has missed the last four games with a shoulder injury picked up on international duty. His potential absence will come as a blow as he is second in the league out of all the central midfielders when it comes to being progressive with possession of the ball.

Hide AdSuch is the nature of the Premier League, both Raul Jimenez and Andreas Pereira are likely to return late from international duty given time zone differences. It means Marco Silva will have to work accordingly with the players who will return back at different times.
Mexico play Honduras at 2.30 am (GMT) on Wednesday (November 20) morning and so Jimenez won't have as much time to train with his teammates. Brazil play Uruguay at the slightly earlier time of 12.45 am, but that will still mean Pereira will encounter the same issue as Andre.
Out Sasa Lukic.
