Wolves manager Gary O’Neil has made two changes to his starting lineup for this afternoon’s Premier League match against Liverpool (12.30pm).
Jean-Ricner Bellegarde makes his debut after joining from Strasbourg for £12.8 million, while Hwang Hee-Chan is returned to the starting XI as Pablo Sarabia and Fabio Silva are dropped from the side that began at Crystal Palace on September 3.
Wolves return from the international break seeking to improve on a mixed start to the season in which they have taken three points from their first four league games. They began with an outstanding performance that deserved better than a 1-0 defeat against Manchester United, but were then thrashed 4-1 at home by an equally impressive Brighton side.
They won 1-0 against Everton with to a late strike from Sasa Kalajdzic, but were defeated 3-2 at Crystal Palace in their most recent match. Liverpool has ten points from their first four games and will start as favorites.
