Pablo Sarabia - Seven crosses in loss Sarabia took four shots (two on target), created one chance, recorded seven crosses (one accurate) and took four corners in Saturday's 4-2 loss versus Leeds.

Impact Sarabia had a solid performance off the bench Saturday as he led the team in crosses (seven, one accurate) and corners taken (four). He also took four shots (two on target) and created one chance despite only playing in the second half. While it was a decent performance and Sarabia has been a good addition to Wolves' attack, he has just one goal contribution in his eight Premier League appearances (and zero while playing for PSG in the first half of the season) so it is still difficult to rely on him for meaningful production.

Impact Hwang has been out of the squad for the last five matches but could be in contention versus Newcastle.

Impact Traore looks close to returning to action after having been sidelined since Nov. 12 against Arsenal, a stretch of 11 matches without getting onto the pitch. The midfielder has started four of his eight appearances for the club this season, so he is far from a lock for the starting XI even if cleared to play versus Newcastle.

Craig Dawson - Eight clearances for CS Dawson generated eight clearances in Saturday's 1-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur.
