Prediction: 3-1
Wolves
Brighton will look to build on back-to-back wins over Tottenham and Newcastle when they take on Wolverhampton in the Premier League round 9. The Seagulls have been showing signs of improvement of late, beating two Champions-League-chasing teams and they must be brimming with confidence ahead of Saturday’s clash. The good news for the hosts is that both Danny Welbeck and Solly March have recovered from their respective injuries.
The Wolves, on the other hand, defended well against Manchester City, but the Citizens eventually scored the winner in the stoppage time. As a result, Gary O’Neil’s men are stuck at the bottom with only one point on their account and given Brighton’s fine form in the national championship, home win should be considered. Defender Bastien Meupiyou is a major doubt, while all Hee-Chan Hwang, Yerson Mosquera, Boubacar Traore, and Enso Gonzalez remain in the recovery room.
