Bayern Munich loanee Mathys Tel and out-of-favour midfielder Yves Bissouma may be handed rare starts. Heung-min Son, Micky Van de Ven and Destiny Udogie are the individuals likely to be rested.
Dejan Kulusevski is close to full recovery from a foot problem but isn’t available this afternoon. According to Postecoglou, Kevin Danso is ‘touch and go’ for the trip to the West Midlands, but isn’t expected to be risked due to the nature of his hamstring injury.
Wolves are searching for their fourth consecutive league win for the first time since they were promoted back into the Premier League in 2018.
Wolves talisman Matheus Cunha is available for selection again after serving a four-match suspension. The Brazilian’s ill-discipline has resulted in him being sent off on two occasions this campaign. Vitor Pereira has no fresh injury concerns to contend with but long-term absentees Yerson Mosquera and Sasa Kalajdzic remain out.

Hugo Ekitike’s pinpoint strike from range got the hosts off to a nightmare start before Pedro Porro’s inventive flick levelled matters just before the half-hour mark.
Despite having the lion’s share of possession and hitting the woodwork twice in the second period, Tottenham couldn’t conjure up a winner on the night. With that second leg season-defining, today’s game will not be the priority for Ange Postecoglou and his players.
