Wolves predicted XI vs Newcastle United: Pedro Neto call made, fresh legs in defence

Whatever side Lage chooses on Friday night know that a win will take them into a European spot in the Premier League table.

Wolves will be without Portuguese midfielder Ruben Neves who remains sidelined through injury and Raul Jimenez who will sit out his final game of suspension when they take on Newcastle United on Friday evening.

Away from that though, Bruno Lage has a few selection dilemmas ahead of him as he looks to guide Wolves into a European spot in the Premier League table.

A win for the black and gold will take them into the top seven for 24 hours at least with Manchester United and West Ham United not playing until Saturday and Sunday respectively.

After a huge win over Aston Villa last weekend, morale is as high as it has been all season at Molineux with belief growing game by game that something special can be achieved come May.

Even if it’s just to win the mental battle short-term over their rivals, a win over the Magpies on Friday evening could be huge in the outcome of this campaign.

Here’s the eleven we feel Lage may go with to achieve exactly that and get the job done.
