Wolves will be looking to continue where they left off when they travel to Fulham after the international break.
The Old Gold clinched a massive 2-0 victory over Southampton to move off the bottom of the Premier League table but there is still a lot of work to be done.
Wolves fans are still calling for Gary O’Neil to be sacked after that result as the Wanderers are sat in a lowly position of 19th, two points adrift of safety.

O’Neil’s men return from the final international break of the year with a trip to Fulham, who are flying in seventh position under Marco Silva as they remain hot on the heels of the Champions League spots.
This fixture promises to be a difficult one and unfortunately, Wolves won’t have a fully fit squad to help them try to win all three points.
Latest Wolves team news ahead of Fulham clash
Wolves still have long-term absentees Sasa Kalajdzic, Enso Gonzalez, Boubacar Traore and Yerson Mosquera all sidelined.
Traore is the closest to returning from that quartet as O’Neil expects him to be back in the squad at around Christmas time.
Sadly, they aren’t the only injury concerns plaguing Wolves, as they’ve been hit with two more during the international break.
Andre injured his hip training for Brazil and missed their draw against Venezuela as a result. Santi Bueno also suffered a groin problem training with Uruguay.
O’Neil will hope the above duo don’t have serious issues, especially Bueno, as he’s one of just three fit senior centre-backs at the club.
In positive news, though, Hwang Hee-chan trained for Wolves before the break and should be fit to face Fulham.
Early Wolves predicted XI vs Fulham
Ahead of their latest reunion with former stars Adama Traore and Raul Jiminez, who both play for Fulham, O’Neil has some key decisions to make with his team selection.
Jose Sa has rarely put wrong for Wolves in recent weeks, and although he recently returned to action, Sam Johnstone should remain on the bench.

Wolves have looked more solid in a back three and providing Bueno is fit for the match, the Uruguayan should continue alongside Craig Dawson and Toti Gomes.
As for the midfield, Nelson Semedo’s spot at right wing-back is nailed while there’s no reason to change the partnership of Joao Gomes and the ‘terrific’ Mario Lemina in the engine room with Rayan Ait-Nouri at left wing-back.
It leaves a forward trio of Pablo Sarabia, Matheus Cunha and Jorgen Strand Larsen, who all started in the win over Saints.
