Match Prediction: Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-1 Everton

The home team will look to end their two-game losing streak at the start of the season by picking up a positive result in this encounter. The Midlands outfit kicked off the campaign with a 4-0 home defeat by Manchester City before a disappointing 1-0 defeat at Bournemouth. 

Everton have made a mixed start to the campaign. The Toffees followed a 1-0 defeat at Leeds United on the opening weekend of the season with a 2-0 home win in their first league outing at their new home, the Hill Dickinson Stadium. 

In truth, David Moyes' team were slightly fortunate to beat the Seagulls, with the visitors hitting the woodwork twice and also missing a penalty kick. 

Wolves will be looking for home advantage to help them get back on track, while Everton will be hoping to build on last weekend's victory. 

Everton don’t have a great recent record at Molineux Stadium, and with Wolves determined to get their form back on track, we are predicting a narrow home victory. 

Vitor Pereira’s team are in need of a result after beginning their campaign with two successive losses to Manchester City and Bournemouth. Given the quality that City possesses, the Citizens beating Wolves was not a massive shock. 

However, a 1-0 defeat at Bournemouth last time out was a more disappointing result. The game saw Wolves fail to score once again, and a lack of goals could prove to be a major issue following the summer departure of star forward Matheus Cunha.

Recent Premier League Results:

• Loss: 0-1 vs AFC Bournemouth (A)

• Loss: 0-4 vs Manchester City (H)

After a highly frustrating opening weekend 1-0 defeat at newly promoted Leeds United, the Toffees bounced back to winning ways with a 2-0 home win over Brighton last time out in the Premier League. 

The team from Merseyside will hope it serves as a catalyst for a positive run of form. The recent big-money signing of highly-rated youngster Tyler Dibling from Southampton will also be a boost, as the visitors look towards a brighter future.

Recent Premier League Results:

• Win: 2-0 vs Brighton & Hove Albion (H)

• Loss: 0-1 vs Leeds United (A)

The recent head-to-head record between these two teams has been relatively even. Wolves edge it slightly, winning two of the last five meetings, with two games ending in draws, and Everton claiming one victory.

• Leon Chiwome (Knee) - Out

• Jarrad Branthwaite (Hamstring) - Out

• Vitalii Mykolenko (Muscle) - Doubt

• Nathan Patterson (Hernia) - Doubt

• Sá, Doherty, Agbadou, Toti, Hoever, Gomes, Bellegarde, Wolfe, Munetsi, Larsen, Arias

Wolves are likely to stick with the 3-4-3 formation, leaning on Doherty’s experience in defence. Talented Portuguese midfielder Joao Gomes will be the player the home team will look to control the midfield, with striker Jorgen Strand Larsen expected to provide the threat up front.

• Pickford, O'Brien, Keane, Tarkowski, Garner, Gueye, Iroegbunam, Ndiaye, Dewsbury-Hall, Grealish, Barry

Everton are likely to still be without defensive pair Jarrad Branthwaite and Vitalii Mykolenko, so Michael Keane and James Garner will deputise for them. Iliman Ndiaye, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Jack Grealish will be players looked to provide creativity for striker Tierno Barry.

• Idrissa Gueye vs Joao Gomes: The two central midfielders will be key to controlling the game's tempo in the middle of the park

• Jorgen Strand Larsen vs James Tarkowski: The giant Wolves forward is his team’s biggest attacking threat, but comes up against a formidable competitor in Everton’s number six.

• Joao Gomes: If the midfielder can get on the ball in the centre of the pitch, then he can make things happen. 

• Jack Grealish: The Manchester City loanee produced two assists in the Brighton game and will be keen to have a similar impact in this encounter.
