Match preview

Promoted Fulham defied expectations to take a point off title hopefuls Liverpool in a thrilling 2-2 draw last Saturday and they can also avoid defeat in their first away contest of the season against Wolves.

The Cottagers showed immense fighting spirit against Jurgen Klopp's Reds last time out, having led twice in the game and they should feel confident of getting something from the game at Molineux.

Having lost their opener 2-1 away to Leeds, Wolves have responded to concerns about their offensive threat with the £27 million capture of forward Goncalo Guedes.

And although the former Valencia star shows a lot of promise, manager Bruno Lage tends to bed in new signings gradually so could start with Guedes on the bench.

Fulham should therefore carry the greater offensive threat with Aleksandar Mitrovic leading their line and they can take at least a point off Wanderers.

Key stat

Wolves failed to win 12 of their 19 home games in the Premier League last season.
