Wolves are taking on Ipswich Town in the Carabao Cup third round tonight, and Gary O’Neil is looking for a morale-boosting win.
Wanderers have struggled in the Premier League so far, taking just four points from their first six games.
There has been some bad luck along the way.
But fans are starting to get a little concerned.
Ideally, Wolves will put in a really encouraging performance tonight against the Championship outfit.
Ipswich have made a cracking start to the new season, and currently sit 2nd in the English second tier, level on points with leaders Leicester City. The Tractor Boys are actually also the joint-top scorers in the division right now with 17.
It could be a tricky game, but Wolves fans are expectant.
Here’s an XI O’Neil could go with at Portman Road…
Predicted Wolves XI to face Ipswich in Carabao Cup third round
Dan Bentley could come in for this game, having featured in the last round against Blackpool.
It’s very possible O’Neil could change the whole defence. And maybe even the whole team.
Max Kilman and Craig Dawson both need resting ahead of Manchester City, so we could see a pairing of Toti Gomes and new signing Santiago Bueno.
Jonny Castro Otto and Matt Doherty could come in for Rayan Ait-Nouri and Nelson Semedo.
In midfield, there’s a good chance Tommy Doyle will be given his first start since joining on loan from Manchester City.
He’s had a couple of cameo appearances so far, and it would be good to get a look at the talented youngster.
Alongside him could be Boubacar Traore, who started against Blackpool.
Pablo Sarabia will surely start, having shone against Blackpool in the last round and having not seen much action in the Premier League.
He could play from the right, and it would be really nice to see Enso Gonzalez given a first opportunity out on the left.
The Paraguayan starlet has been match fit since his arrival, and this could be good a chance for him to show O’Neil what he can do.
Up top, there’s a reasonable chance we will again see Fabio Silva and Sasa Kalajdzic in a partnership.
Neither featured against Luton, so you would imagine both will be getting minutes tonight.
So that would be the whole team changed from Luton, with Bueno and Gonzalez making their debuts.
With City next up in the Premier League, wholesale changes are surely likely for this one.
Wolves (4-4-2): Bentley/Doherty, S.Bueno, Toti, Jonny/Sarabia, Doyle, Traore, Gonzalez/Silva, Kalajdzic.
