Wolverhampton Wanderers head coach Nuno Espirito Santo has the full complement of players available for this Sunday’s tie against Burnley at the Molineux – minus only Ivan Cavaleiro who is yet to feature in the 2018/19 campaign so far.

I can’t see the Portuguese gaffer making changes for change’s sake, especially with most getting a rest over the international break or at least getting a fresh and different surrounding, so I’d fully anticipate Santo to go with the same group who took to the London Stadium pitch when we faced West Ham United and took a 1-0 victory late on in stoppage time.

Given summer signing and £18million man Adama Traore scored in that match and was incredibly impressive once more from the substitutes bench, that is the only change I’d expect to see with him given his full debut and the opportunity to impress from the first minute.

Patricio,
Jonny Castro, Boly, Coady, Bennett, Doherty,
Neves, Moutinho,
Jota, Jimenez, Traore.

I just can’t see Santo leaving him on the bench again given the high he must be on having cameoed well in the past and then opened his club account.
