Wolves Predicted Lineup vs Brighton, As Hosts Yet To Win

How Wolves Have Lined Up Recently

Last time out against Spurs, Wolves adopted a 4-3-3 formation, marking a tactical shift from Pereira’s usual 3-4-2-1 setup. Several changes were made to the starting lineup due to the club’s early-season struggles. Sam Johnstone remained in goal over José Sá. The back four consisted of Matt Doherty, Santiago Bueno, Ladislav Krejčí, and Hugo Bueno.

The midfield trio consisted of André, João Gomes, and Jhon Arias, while the forward line featured Marshall Munetsi, Hwang Hee-chan, and Jørgen Strand Larsen.

Wolves Recent Form And Tactics

Under Pereira, Wolves have shown some improvement, securing their first point of the season with a 1-1 draw away at Spurs, following five straight defeats. The tactical switch to a 4-3-3 has provided a more stable defensive structure while allowing Wolves to be more dynamic in the attacking transitions.

Despite the positive aspects, Wolves continue to face challenges in converting chances into goals. The team has struggled to finish and create clear-cut chances this season, which has greatly hindered some of their performances. Improving efficiency in the final third will be crucial against Brighton.

Injuries to Consider

Wolves have a trio of players who will potentially not be available for the game against Brighton. During the press conference, Pereira confirmed that Stand Larsen, who has struggled with injuries this season, is still not 100% but didn’t rule him out. He also confirmed that Toti Gomes is out with the flu. Matt Doherty is also to undergo surgery for a broken wrist, which rules him out for the game against Brighton, as well as the international break.
