Wolves vs Fulham Preview: How to Watch on TV, Live Stream, Kick Off Time & Team News

Fulham travel to Molineux this Sunday in search of their first points back in the Premier League as they face a Wolves side also struggling for form.

Nuno Espirito Santo's men enjoyed a superb opening day win at Sheffield United, however, since then they've struggled to maintain the level of performances which saw them notch a seventh place finish last season.

Fulham have not enjoyed a fruitful return to the top flight. Granted the season is only three games old, however, Scott Parker's men are one of just three sides still awaiting their first points of the season, and a goal difference of minus seven sees them rooted to the bottom of the table.

It seems ridiculous to suggest it at this stage of the season but you feel as though Fulham need to pick up points soon or they risk being cut adrift and psychologically the team is in desperate need of a boost.

Here's 90min's preview of Sunday's clash.

Team News

Daniel Podence is back in full training for Wolves after a shoulder injury ruled him out of the defeat at West Ham. Nuno has confirmed he will be monitoring the youngster's fitness along with Fernando Marçal, who also missed the trip to the London Stadium.

The Wolves boss also provided an update on Jonny this week. The Spain international is continuing rehabilitation after undergoing knee surgery over the summer and Nuno confirmed he's progressing well but is not expected back as soon as this weekend.

For the visitors, Kenny Tete is sidelined with a calf problem while Mario Lemina and Harrison Reed are also doubts as they continue rehab on their respective knocks.


Predicted Lineups

Wolves: Patricio; Boly, Coady, Saïss ; Semedo, Neves, Moutinho, Vinagre; Traore, Jiménez, Neto

Fulham: Areola; Odoi, Hector, Ream, Bryan; Anguissa, Cairney; Decordova-Reid, Onomah, Cavaleiro; Mitrovic


Recent Form

After flying out of the blocks at Sheffield United on the opening day, Wolves have been in miserable form. Nuno's men have taken no points from the following two Premier League games and have been dumped out of the Carabao Cup at the hands of Championship side Stoke City.

The visitors are experiencing an equally wretched run, with a Carabao Cup victory against Sheffield United their only triumph of the season so far.

The 3-0 defeat at home to Aston Villa in their last Premier League game will have been a body blow for Parker's men and they'll need to pick themselves up quickly if they're to notch their first points of the season.


Wolves

West Ham 4-0 Wolves (27/09)
Wolves 1-3 Man City (21/09)
Wolves 0-1 Stoke (17/09)
Sheffield United 0-2 Wolves (14/09)
Wolves 0-1 Sevilla (11/08)

Fulham

Brentford 3-0 Fulham (01/10)
Fulham 0-3 Aston Villa (28/09)
Fulham 2-0 Sheffield Wednesday (23/09)
Leeds 4-3 Fulham (19/09)
Ipswich 0-1 Fulham (16/09)


Prediction

It's beginning to look like Fulham may not be a Premier League team for very long, with one bookmaker already paying out on the Cottagers being a Championship side next season.

That being said, Parker's side do have firepower, though keeping them out of the other end has always been a problem and it's difficult to see anything other than a Wolves win on Sunday.

Prediction: Wolves 3-1 Fulham
