Jean-Ricner Bellegarde - Makes bench Saturday Bellegarde (strain) is on the bench Saturday to face Sheffield United.

Impact Bellegarde has been sidelined for four matches due to a muscular issue but is ready to return here, though he'll wait for an opportunity on the bench.

Hugo Bueno - Remains sidelined Bueno (hamstring) remains sidelined for Saturday's trip to Sheffield United, according to manager Gary O'Neil.

Impact Bueno has missed four matches due to a hamstring injury and remains sidelined. At this point a return before the international break is seeming unlikely. Rayan Ait-Nouri is the top choice at left-back or left wing-back with Bueno out, though Toti Gomes also got a start in a four-at-the-back formation.

Jean-Ricner Bellegarde - Set for return Saturday Bellegarde (strain) is expected to return for Saturday's clash with Sheffield United, according to manager Gary O'Neil. "Bellegarde will hopefully be in the squad tomorrow, yes. He...

Impact Bellegarde has been sidelined for four matches due to the muscular issue but has been nearing a return in recent weeks. It appears he finally took the final steps to get fit and should be an option Saturday. This is a great sign for Bellegarde, though it's unclear if he will be ready for the starting XI against The Blades.

Tommy Doyle - Role could increase Doyle has appeared off the bench in each of the last two Premier League matches and could see his role increase with Pedro Neto (hamstring) out.

Impact Doyle has yet to get a Premier League start, having made just four bench appearances. He could be in line for more minutes with Neto confirmed to be on the sideline for multiple weeks. Doyle's minutes were steadily increasing before the injury as well, playing 81 minutes in his last two appearances.

Jose Sa - Gets beaten twice versus Newcastle Sa made two saves and conceded two goals during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Newcastle.

Impact Sa definitely had better outing than this one as he could've done better in both goals scored by the opposition. First, midway through the first half, the goalkeeper clashed with a teammate as both tried to clear the ball from the box but instead they left the ball loose for Callum Wilson to open the scoring. Then, just before halftime, Sa guessed correctly the side on a penalty taken by the same Wilson and touched the ball but it still went in. With 17 goals conceded over 10 EPL starts this season, Sa will try to bounce back during next Saturday's visit to Sheffield United.

Matheus Cunha - Takes four shots versus Newcastle Cunha had four shots (three on target) and suffered two fouls during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Newcastle.

Impact Cunha was his side's most dangerous threat here but couldn't find the back of the net as he did on the previous outing, However, what we see from the forward this season is a much looser player than he was after arriving midway through the past campaign. The should will eventually come in bunches for Cunha, but meanwhile he'll try to add value with his peripheral numbers and even marginal defensive contributions.

Toti Gomes - Logs assist versus Newcastle Gomes delivered an assist and made one tackle, two clearances, three interceptions and two blocks during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Newcastle.

Impact Gomes had a nice defensive performance but his biggest contribution ended up coming on the other side of the pitch. In the 71st minute, the defender made a brilliant play, using his dribbling skills to leave two opponents behind and then assisting Hwang Hee-Chan for the goal that sealed the 2-2 draw. This was the first career EPL assist for Gomes, who will hope to remain in the lineup for the upcoming matches.

Hwang Hee-chan - Scores equalizer against Newcastle Hwang scored a goal off his lone shot and created two chances during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Newcastle.

Impact Hwang wasn't exactly having a great game here but then everything changed for him in the 71st minute when TotI Gomes found him inside the box with a through pass. Then, he calmly left a defender on the floor before firing the ball past the goalkeeper to seal the 2-2 draw. That's now six goals and one assist over 10 league appearances for the forward, already his best campaign since he joined Wolves. He'll try to keep adding to his tally during next Saturday's visit to Sheffield United.

Mario Lemina - Scores in return Lemina returned from his one-game suspension and bagged a goal (on his lone shot on target) in Saturday's draw against Newcastle. He also created one chance, sent one cross, made t...

Impact Lemina found the back of the net in the 35th minute with a powerful header from close range following a corner kick from Pedro Neto. Lemina has been a regular starter for Wolverhampton this season, and he should remain in that role when the Wolves take on Sheffield United on Saturday. However, he's not much of a threat on offense, and most of his value will continue to come via defensive stats.

What are Wolves' options without Pedro Neto? Neto left Molineux on crutches on Saturday and is likely to be sidelined for several weeks. So how do Wolves compensate?

OCTOBER 30, 2023 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Pedro Neto - Confirmed out weeks Neto will miss "a couple of weeks" because of a hamstring injury suffered Saturday against Newcastle, he revealed via social media.

Impact This isn't too surprising for Neto, who came up with the injury late in Saturday's match. Assuming it's not a two-week tweak, he'll likely be out until the next international break, pointing to a return at the end of November. While there isn't an exact replacement for him, there are plenty of options, though it may require a tweak in formation.

Pedro Neto - Pulls hamstring Saturday Neto pulled his hamstring and was forced off late in the second half of Saturday's match against Newcastle.

Impact Neto was making a run toward goal late in Saturday's match when he pulled up with the injury despite having the ball right outside the box. Clearly, it's not great news for Neto, who added his seventh assist of the season against Newcastle. With a month on the sidelines possible, if not likely, set pieces will fall elsewhere for Wolverhampton and his role on the wing will have to be taken up with any number of possibilities for Gary O'Neil.

Jean-Ricner Bellegarde - Not ready for Saturday Bellegarde is not in the match day squad to face Newcastle on Saturday.

Impact Bellegarde was unable to pass a late fitness test in time to take up a role in Saturday's squad. The midfielder was close to a return in the buildup and should return in some capacity next week against Sheffield United.

Impact Bellegarde is a doubt to get the start even if deemed fit enough to play Saturday. The midfielder has missed three matches in a row but if he is fit once more it's possible that Wolves could switch back to the 4-2-3-1 that they began playing when he arrived in September.
