Everton vs Wolves Match Preview
Wolves will be pleased with their start to the season despite going into the weekend 15th in the Premier League table, and are expected to cause Everton problems at Goodison Park.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s side have been busier than all of their Premier League rivals due to contesting the Europa League qualifiers and they have secured a place in the group stage, in which they will play Besiktas, Braga and Slovan Bratislava.
It has meant nine matches already and Wolves are still unbeaten, winning all six in Europe, including both legs against Italian club Torino, and they have drawn three out of three in the Premier League – creditably away to Leicester and at home to Manchester United but needing a 97th-minute equaliser to salvage a point when they hosted Burnley last Sunday.
