Wolverhampton Wanderers are set to return to action on Saturday as they take on Luton Town at Molineux, with the aim of securing a top-half finish in the Premier League by the end of the season. Currently, Wolves are two points behind Bournemouth in 10th place, and they will be looking to close that gap in the remaining games.
After suffering a defeat against Bournemouth during the week, Wolves will be eager to bounce back with a positive result against Luton, who are fighting for survival at the bottom of the table. This sets up a potentially challenging encounter for Gary O’Neill’s side.
In the build-up to the match, the latest team news surrounding both Wolves and Luton Town will be provided, along with the predicted starting lineups for the two teams.
Wolverhampton Wanderers’ team updates
Wolverhampton Wanderers are dealing with several injury concerns as they approach their remaining Premier League matches this season. Defender Craig Dawson and midfielder Leon Chiwone have both been ruled out for the rest of the campaign. Additionally, forward Pedro Neto is not expected to return to action before the end of the month. These absences will force Wolves to navigate the final stretch of the season without some key players in their squad.
Wolves’ Injury Concerns Ahead of Luton Clash
As Wolverhampton Wanderers prepare to face Luton Town this weekend, they are dealing with a mix of injury news and potential returnees.
Potential Returnees
Midfielder Noha Lemina is a player who could make a comeback this Saturday after recovering from a hamstring injury. Additionally, Jean-Ricner Bellegarde is also in contention to return to the squad.
A Fresh Blow
However, the Wolves camp has also been hit with a new injury concern. Manager Gary O’Neill confirmed earlier this week that Santiago Bueno Sciutto has suffered a hamstring issue.
Cautious Approach
While O’Neill described the injury as “not a big hamstring,” the club is taking a cautious approach to avoid losing Bueno Sciutto for a sustained period. The manager stated, “he wanted to give it a try, but we don’t want to risk losing anyone for a sustained period.”
Navigating the Injury Challenges
As Wolves look to secure a top-half finish in the Premier League, they will need to navigate these injury challenges and ensure they have a fit and available squad for the remaining matches. The potential returns of Lemina and Bellegarde could provide a boost, but the loss of Bueno Sciutto is a setback that the team will need to manage carefully.
