Injury expert shares Wolves update ahead of Premier League clash v Everton
Wolverhampton Wanderers are set to be without two first-team players for their Premier League clash against Everton on Saturday, according to injury expert, Ben Dinnery.
Sean Dyche’s side head to the Black Country looking to put themselves in a strong position heading into the final-day clash against Bournemouth.
According to Dinnery (Premier injuries), Chiquinho and Sasa Kalajdzic are both “ruled out” for Julen Lopetegui’s side. Boubacar Traore is returning to match fitness and Dinnery rates the 21-year-old’s chances of playing at “50 per cent”.
Pressure
The pressure is now firmly on Dyche and the players. We all know the clash against Manchester City was going to be a tough ask. The Champions were far too clinical and when İlkay Gündoğan is in top form, he’s hard to stop. For large parts of the first half, the Toffees looked comfortable.
However, when coming up against the best teams in the Premier League, you will be punished for lapses in concentration. Erling Haaland touched the ball twice before getting on the scoresheet, that’s all it takes. Now the focus will be on the trip to Molineux.
Lopetegui’s side are now safe and could well be ‘on the beach’. Wolves were in trouble earlier on in the season but have put a consistent run of form together to ensure their Premier League status remains intact for another year.
After the away performance against Brighton, Everton will fancy their chances of picking up a result in the Black Country. Four points from the last two games is the bare minimum.
