Impact Neto is set to return to the first team for the final match of the season. Injuries limited the winger but when fit he's been an incredibly productive player when fully fit. Neto's last appearance came in March, so even if deemed fit he may not be ready to start.

Impact Sarabia's demotion from Wolverhampton's starting XI has unsurprisingly yielded limited outputs since then. But on Saturday, his third consecutive appearance off the bench, he got back on track with his most crosses and accurate crosses since April 2. Since then, Sarabia has logged 26 crosses (six accurate) in eight appearances.

Joao Gomes - Five crosses, three accurate Gomes had two shots (zero on goal), five crosses (three accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 3-1 defeat versus Crystal Palace.

Daniel Bentley - Concedes three in start Bentley made no saves and allowed three goals in Saturday's 3-1 loss against Crystal Palace.

Impact For the first time since conceding three at West Ham on Dec. 17, Bentley was named Wolverhampton's starting goalkeeper. Unfortunately for him, his latest appearance was worse than his previous start. At least in the West Ham game, Bentley logged a save despite conceding three goals. He allowed three of them again Saturday but failed to compensate at all with any saves or clearances.

Jose Sa - Scratched with illness Sa has been scratched from Saturday's match against Crystal Palace due to illness.

Impact Sa was initially starting in goal, but was taken out of the lineup during warmups and replaced by Dan Bentley. The keeper will hope to recover in time for next week's season finale at Liverpool.

Mario Lemina - Cleared to start Lemina (hamstring) is starting for Wolves during Saturday's match against Crystal Palace.

MAY 11 • ROTOWIRE

Mario Lemina - Expected to return Lemina (hamstring) is expected to return for Saturday's clash with Crystal Palace, Wolves announced.

Impact Lemina came off with a tight hamstring against Manchester City, but is now expected to return. The midfielder should get back on the pitch against Crystal Palace, and should be in for a chance to go the full 90. In the one-sided loss to Manchester City there was no point in risking the crucial defensive midfielder.

MAY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Pedro Neto - Still out Neto (hamstring) is out for Saturday's clash with Crystal Palace, according to manager Gary O'Neil. "Pedro still won't be involved tomorrow."

Impact Neto remains on the sideline with a hamstring injury and is out for the Crystal Palace match. The forward now only has one more chance to return before the end of the season, a May 19 trip to Liverpool. Neto had a solid year, tying his career-high with 11 goal contributions (two goals, nine assists) despite playing just 19 times (18 starts.)

MAY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Tommy Doyle - Cleared for play Doyle is available to play again after being loan-locked for Saturday's 5-1 loss to Manchester City.

Impact Doyle is now an option for the club's upcoming match against Crystal Palace on Sunday after sitting on the sidelines against Manchester City due to playing his parent club. He should see playtime immediately in his return, hoping to find the starting XI after getting the start in six of his past eight appearances on the team sheet.

Mario Lemina - Early exit, picks up hamstring issue Lemina was forced off the field in the 46th minute of Saturday's 5-1 loss to Manchester City due to hamstring tightness, according to manager Gary O'Neil, per Liam Keen of the Expr...

Impact Lemina was forced to leave the pitch early after feeling some tightness in his hamstring, leaving him questionable for Saturday's match against Crystal Palace. However, the injury does not appear to be all that serious and was more of a cautionary move, leaving decent confidence he will be ready Saturday. He will now hope to get into training over the week, likely receiving another update on his health before the Crystal Palace tilt.

Hwang Hee-chan - Scores in loss Hee-Chan scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 5-1 defeat against Manchester City.

Impact Hee-Chan provided the one bright spot Wolves were given Saturday, scoring in the 53rd minute to ease the pain somewhat in the brutal 5-1 loss. This was his second consecutive game with a goal, now having 12 on the season to give him 15 goal contributions. He has started in four straight games since recovering from his hamstring issues.

This marks his 11th straight game without a clean sheet, notching five or more saves eight times during that span. He will look for his fifth clean sheet of the season when they face Crystal Palace on Saturday.

Rayan Ait-Nouri - Fit to start Ait-Nouri (knock) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Manchester City.

Impact Ait-Nouri is good to go after picking up a knock last week against Luton Town. The wing-back makes his third consecutive start for Wolves on Saturday.

MAY 4 • ROTOWIRE

Jean-Ricner Bellegarde - Returns after seven matches Bellegarde (knee) is among the substitutes during Saturday's match against Manchester City.

Santiago Bueno - Makes bench against City Bueno (hamstring) is available from the bench during Saturday's match against Manchester City.

Impact Bueno returns after missing last week's match against Luton Town through injury. The defender had started four straight matches prior to last week's absence, but settles for a role on the bench Saturday.

Pedro Neto - Not ready to return Neto (hamstring) is not in the squad to face Manchester City on Saturday.

Impact Neto misses out on Saturday's fixture despite returning to training in the buildup to the match. The attacker misses his eighth straight match, but should return in some capacity next week.

Santiago Bueno - Training with team Bueno (hamstring) is back in team training ahead of Saturday's trip to Manchester City, according to manager Gary O'Neil."Bellegarde, Neto and Santi are all back in full training."

Impact Bueno returned to team training, after suffering a hamstring issue and missing out against Luton Town. The defender's hamstring isn't expected to be a serious issue, so he now has a chance to get back in the starting XI. Bueno started seven of eight matches before missing out due to the injury.

Pedro Neto - Training in full Neto (hamstring) is back in full training ahead of Saturday's trip to Manchester City, according to manager Gary O'Neil. "Bellegarde, Neto and Santi are all back in full training."

Impact Neto returned to full team training this week, which means he could be an option Saturday at Manchester City, albeit from the bench. Still, given his time away and that he's had multiple hamstring injuries this season, he probably won't be rushed back to the pitch.

MAY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Jean-Ricner Bellegarde - Back in full training Bellegarde (knee) is in full training ahead of Saturday's trip to Manchester City, according to manager Gary O'Neil."Bellearde, Neto and Santi are all back in full training."

Impact Bellegarde is back in training, and could return as soon as Saturday's clash. There was some concern he would be out until the end of the season, but it appears the injury isn't as serious as originally feared. The attacking midfielder has largely played a bench role throughout the season so he might not start straight away.

MAY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Tommy Doyle - Loan made permanent Doyle's loan to Wolves from Manchester City has been made permanent , the club announced.

Impact Doyle has been on loan on a season-long deal but the move has now been made permanent. The midfielder has made 24 appearances (11 starts) in the Premier League while adding on a goal in the FA Cup. His move will be official from July 1.
