Romelu Lukaku has been a key figure in Manchester United's revival, netting three goals in the last two Premier League games, and he looks the man most likely to break Wolves' resistance at Old Trafford.

Wolves have impressed since their return to the top flight and should continue to play in a positive manner.

However, they may struggle to find a way past world-class goalkeeper David De Gea, who followed up his stunning injury-time save at Watford by keeping a clean sheet in Wednesday's 3-0 victory over Young Boys.
