Impact Ait-Nouri completed a huge all-around display as he attempted two shots, attempted two crosses and won all five of his tackles. This was the most tackles he has won this season and the first time in 11 matches he has attempted two or more shots.

Jean-Ricner Bellegarde - Assists both in 2-1 win Bellegarde assisted twice to go with two crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 2-1 victory over Southampton.

Jorgen Strand Larsen - Scores twice in 2-1 win Strand Larsen scored two goals to go with two shots (two on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 victory against Southampton. He was injured and subbed out in the 90th minute.

Impact Strand Larsen scored both goals for Wolves as he helped his side win 2-1 over fellow relegation strugglers Southampton. These were his only goals in his last 10 games. In these 10 games, however, he has placed nine of his 12 shots on target, a 75% shot accuracy.

Jose Sa - Two saves in away win Sa registered two saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 2-1 victory versus Southampton.

Impact Sa made two saves as he helped Wolves pick up a crucial win in their race for survival in the Premier League. He kept a clean sheet in his previous away game but conceded in the 75th minute against Southampton. He has made 11 saves in his last four matches.

MARCH 16 • ROTOWIRE

Marshall Munetsi - Fit after early exit Munetsi is fit for Saturday's match against Southampton after exiting the club's last match early, according to his club.

Impact Munetsi looks to be dealing with no repercussions following his early exit from their last contest, as he is immediately fit for the club's next match. This is great news for the club, as he did score his first goal for the club and earned the start last time out. He has started in three of his last four appearances, and will hope to earn that spot back.

MARCH 14 • ROTOWIRE

Emmanuel Agbadou - Busy defensively in return Agbadou (undisclosed) made nine clearances, one interception and one block during Saturday's 1-1 draw against Everton.

Impact Agbadou returned to the team after a three-game absence and picked up where he left off prior to the injury as he dominated opposing forwards and even put up a season high in clearances. An undisputed starter when fully fit, the center-back is really impressing since he joined Wolves during the winter transfer window, with 14 tackles and 34 clearances over six league starts.

MARCH 10 • ROTOWIRE

Jose Sa - Allows one in draw Sa made three saves and conceded one goal during Saturday's 1-1 draw against Everton.

Impact Sa couldn't do much when a deflection by a teammate made Jack Harrison's finish even tougher to stop in the 33rd minute but than was solid as usual throughout the rest of the contest. With 40 goals allowed, 56 saves and five clean sheets over 21 league starts, the goalkeeper isn't playing like he did in his first two EPL campaign but what really limits his fantasy production is the fact that he just doesn't have enough defense in front of him.

MARCH 10 • ROTOWIRE

Jean-Ricner Bellegarde - Delivers assist on Saturday Bellegarde made an assist, had one off-target shots, created three chances and sent in three crosses (one accurate) during Saturday's 1-1 draw against Everton.

Impact Bellegarde had a very active first half, with the perfect through pass that led to Marshall Munetst's goal in the 40th minute, but then couldn't keep it up during the final frame, which led him to be subbed off during the closing minutes of the contest. With one goals and two assists over the last five league starts, the playmaker keeps bouncing back after a very slow start of campaign.

MARCH 10 • ROTOWIRE

Marshall Munetsi - Scores first EPL goal Munetsi scored a goal off three shots (two on target) and suffered two fouls during Saturday's 1-1 draw against Everton.

Impact Munetsi returned to the starting lineup here after coming off the bench during previous week's FA Cup game and made most of the new chance as he paced his team in shots attempted and one of them ended up at the back of the net for his team's lone goal in the 40th minute. That's now a goal and an assist over the last three starts for the recently-joined midfielder, who can definitely help in any part of the pitch.

MARCH 10 • ROTOWIRE

Goncalo Guedes - Back on bench Guedes (knee) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Everton.

Impact Guedes was back in training this week, so it makes sense to see the attacker on the bench Saturday after a three game absence. He did start in six of his eight appearances before his injury and will hope to see that spot again soon.

MARCH 8 • ROTOWIRE

Emmanuel Agbadou - Starting against Everton Agbadou (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Everton.

Impact Adbadou is back from his injury after three games out, immediately seeing the start as they face the Toffee's. He is a regular starter when fit and should continue in this role, starting in all five of his appearances with the club.

MARCH 8 • ROTOWIRE

Goncalo Guedes - Back in training Guedes (knee) is back in training ahead of Saturday's clash with Everton, Wolves announced.

Impact Guedes is back in training and could play some role during Saturday's clash. The forward isn't likely to take an immediate role back in the starting XI after three weeks out, but he could be back off the bench Saturday.

MARCH 7 • ROTOWIRE

Emmanuel Agbadou - Could return Saturday Agbadou (undisclosed) is back in training ahead of Saturday's clash with Everton, Wolves announced.

Impact Agbadou is back in training, though it remains to be seen if he's fit enough to play in Saturday's clash. The defender has been back in training throughout the week, and seems set to be included in the squad, even if he's not fit enough to start.

Hwang Hee-chan - Unused from bench Hwang (hamstring) went unused off the bench in Saturday's FA Cup clash with Bournemouth.

Impact Hwang returned to the squad for Saturday's FA Cup clash with Bournemouth making the bench but remaining an unused substitute. His availability is a positive sign suggesting he has fully recovered from his hamstring injury. That said, his return should not have much of an impact on the starting lineup since he had started only one of the last four games across all competitions before his absence.

MARCH 3 • ROTOWIRE

Matheus Cunha - Shown straight red Cunha was shown a straight red card in Saturday's loss to Bournemouth and will serve a suspension.

Impact Cunha is set for the sidelines after Saturday's contest, as he would see a straight red card after punching a Bournemouth player in the face during extra time. This will carry over to league play and suspend him for at least the March 8 match against Everton, although he will likely see a further suspension due to the severity of his penalty and the fact that it is the second time this season he has been involved in a serious conflict. This will force a change, with Pablo Sarabia likely to see more time while he is out.

MARCH 1 • ROTOWIRE

Hwang Hee-chan - Ready to return Hwang (hamstring) is an option for Saturday's trip to Bournemouth, according to manager Vitor Pereira.

Impact Hwang last appeared in the FA Cup and is back for the next round, though he's unlikely to crack the starting XI. While he has a few starts this season, it doesn't seem like he'll be featured much the rest of the way with Jorgen Strand Larsen healthy again and Marshall Munetsi playing in more of an attacking role.

FEBRUARY 28 • ROTOWIRE

Matheus Cunha - Nine crosses, six shots Cunha had six shots (three on goal), nine crosses (zero accurate) and four corners in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to Fulham.

Impact Cunha's nine crosses are his second-highest in a Premier League game this season. Even though the attacking midfielder's latest goal streak has ended, it did not finish without a valiant effort on his part. In three of four appearances for February, Cunha logged multiple shots on goal, averaging 2.3 total in the category this month.

FEBRUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Nelson Semedo - Records assist Semedo assisted once to go with five crosses (one accurate) and three chances created in Tuesday's 2-1 loss against Fulham.

Impact Semedo has four assists across the 2024-25 Premier League. Even though Wolverhampton's team has struggled defensively, he has significantly improved offensively. For context, Semedo's four assists tie those he logged in every other of his four EPL seasons.

FEBRUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Joao Gomes - Finally scores goal Gomes scored one goal to go with four shots (one on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to Fulham.

Impact Gomes went into the Fulham-Wolverhampton game without having logged any goals after Nov. 23. The midfielder scoring against Fulham gives him three goals this Premier League season. Going in to March, Gomes finished February having logged the goal on six shots (only one on target) with two chances created and two inaccurate crosses.

FEBRUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Jose Sa - Concedes two goals Sa made three saves and allowed two goals in Tuesday's 2-1 defeat against Fulham.

Impact The second half of February saw Sa go back and forth between bad and sound performances. Sandwiched between games with multiple goals conceded included a three-save clean sheet. Sa will look to establish more consistency in March, beginning with a Saturday game at AFC Bournemouth.

FEBRUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Goncalo Guedes - Receives knee MRI, out Tuesday Guedes is out for Tuesday's match against Fulham due to knee pain and is set for an MRI, according to manager Vitor Pereira.

Impact Guedes will miss out Tuesday after missing Saturday's match against Bournemouth, as the attacker has been dealt a blow to the knee. It appears it may be a bit more of a serious injury, as the attacker is receiving an MRI. He will hope for the best possible news and look to avoid a major absence, as we are nearing the end of the season.

FEBRUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE

Jorgen Strand Larsen - Sees 45 from bench Strand Larsen appeared off the bench for 45 minutes in Saturday's 1-0 win over Bournemouth.

Impact Strand Larsen made his way back from a hamstring injury Saturday, seeing a spot on the bench to face the Cherries. He would end up seeing time, appearing at halftime for 45 minutes while notching one shot and a chance created. He has started in 22 of his 24 appearances this season and is a regular starter, so he will look to see that spot next contest.

FEBRUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE

Rayan Ait-Nouri - Crosses thrice in 1-0 win Ait-Nouri had three crosses, one chances created and four tackles (one won) in Saturday's 1-0 win against Bournemouth.

Impact Wolves have shown a bit of life in recent matches, now with clean sheets in two of their last three league games. Unfortunately for Ait-Nouri, his numbers haven't changed too much, and if anything he's been less attacking under Vitor Pereira. In his last six starts, he has just two shots and five chances created.
