We've been surprisingly good this year. Expected to be in a battle to stay up, so O'Neil has done a brilliant job really.

In terms of performances, we're significantly better as the underdog. We've got a few battlers in midfield, we're competitive and quick on the break.

Poor performances at Luton, Sheffield United (aside from 45 minutes), Burnley and Forest. I fear you will setup in a way that follows suit, and we struggle to break teams down when they're like that. Unfortunately for us, you're a lot more effective going forward than those sides IMO.

Lemina pictured at the airport today, can't stress how big a miss that is for us. Player of the Year so far, and such a good signing, but you're missing Doucoure I think so you can say the same.

Tommy Doyle likely to start instead of him and it's a big downgrade to be honest. Doyle is a good passer but against a physical side like you, I think we will miss Lemina badly. Boubacar Traore could come in, but missed the squad in last two games so unlikely to start even though he supposedly fit now.

Neto likely to play from the bench, so that's a boost.

O'Neil has said Hwang is fit but he is firmly in the camp that he doesn't want people knowing about injuries. I personally don't like it, but basically you can't take anything he says at face value.

Hwang's a weird one though. Pretty poor footballer but scored 10 goals from 11 shots on target this season, and some classy finishes.

I was at Goodison earlier in the season and thought you deserved to win. Think you will edge it tomorrow, but still a good season for us.

Would expect something like this:

Sa
Semedo, Kilman, Dawson, Toti
Sarabia, Gomes, Doyle, Ait-Nouri
Cunha, Hwang

If it's now Hwang likely to be Bellegarde who isn't a forward.

People think we play a back five now, but it's more a four with Ait-Nouri as a winger, but he can switch it up to become a five quite easily. Ait-Nouri has been superb for us and key to the whole system as they do switch between the two.
 

Two possibilities in my mind.

The league will shaft everton with the cover reason being given by the pundits that it is time wolves got some decisions going their way, or

Multiple red cards to each team found by var in order to impact both teams going forward.

I favour the 1st as being more likely.

When we both have under 30% possession who is going to have the rest ?
 
I think dyche will know we have to be really up for this. Ultimately I think its a really tough game and would be happy with a draw. If we win it would be a great result but I feel we would need a big decision to have gone in our favour as I can see wolves having the better of the game.
 
Regardless of the result I am most intrigued as to which way the referee and VAR decisions are going to go as Wolves have been shafted more this season than we have!
Wolves are not to be underestimated, they are a very capable team. Quite happy to keep slow, methodical possession in their own half and then play 100mph going forward. I want to win but I would take a draw here. COYB!
 
……………….. Pickford
……. Tarks…...Keane…..Branthwaite
Patterson…………………………..Myko
………… Garner……..Onana
…….. Harrison……………..McNeil
…………………. DCL

Definitely a game that could go either way but feeling confident we’ll be up for it after the last 2.
