Wolverhampton Wanderers return to home soil for the first time in two weeks on Saturday afternoon as they play host to Champions League chasers Tottenham Hotspur. Without a victory in their last three Premier League matches, Wolves will be keen to get back to winning ways at Molineux.
It won’t be easy, though, as Spurs have been in brilliant form of late, with four wins in five. Antonio Conte’s absence has certainly been felt with a hiccup 4-1 defeat to Leicester City and a shock FA Cup exit against Sheffield United, but Tottenham look pretty dangerous for the most part.
Both teams come into the match fatigued from midweek fixtures so there could be quite a few changes made. There were also some injury troubles that emerged on Wednesday, with Hugo Bueno taken off with a hamstring problem for Wanderers and Harry Kane sitting out with “a lack of fitness” for Spurs.
With that in mind, here is the slightly rotated starting XI we think Julen Lopetegui will go with on Saturday afternoon – in a 4-3-3 formation.

9. CAM: Pablo Sarabia
Lopetegui has been considering playing Sarabia centrally and we think he could give it a go. Poor showing at Liverpool but this move could help out. | Getty Images

10. RW: Adama Traore
Wolves will likely be on the back foot for much of the clash with Spurs, so Adam’s pace could be crucial on the counter attack. | AFP via Getty Images

11. LW: Pedro Neto
Finally returned to the matchday squad - albeit an unused substitute - at Liverpool and should be ready to start. He has been brilliant in the past. | Getty Images

12. ST: Raul Jimenez
Looked isolated in the last game but that wasn’t through the fault of his own. Played very well at Fulham a few days beforehand and we reckon he’ll start again. | Getty Images
