Prediction: 1-1
Brighton
A spot in the FA Cup quarter-finals will be at stake when Wolverhampton and Brighton square off against each other at Molineux Stadium. The Wolves recorded a hard-fought 1-0 win over Sheffield United at the weekend, with Pablo Sarabia scoring the only goal of the match and they are surely capable of matching the Seagulls on home soil. Matheus Cunha remains in the recovery room, while Jean-Ricner Bellegarde is pushing for a recall to the starting XI.
The visitors, on the other hand, have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team losing to Tottenham, beating Sheffield United, while sharing the spoils with Everton. In their last meeting in the English top flight the two sides played out a goalless draw and yet another close encounter is on the cards. Billy Gilmour is banned for the match, while all Kaoru Mitoma, James Milner, and Joao Pedro miss out with injuries.
