Wolves head to Slovakia later this evening to face Slovan Bratislava as they look to build on their Europa League triumph over Besiktas last time out.
The hosts currently top Group K after picking up four points across their first two matches.
Domestically, Nuno Santo’s side have turned a corner by going unbeaten in their last six games in all competitions.
Are Gareth Southgate’s Aston Villa roots the reason behind the Wolves player in the video below being overlooked?…
Strangely, despite having a stadium ban, Wolves and Slovan Bratislava will battle it out in front of a full house as, under UEFA regulations, children under the age of 14 are allowed free entry with over 15,000 now expected in attendance.
But Nuno faces other worries as an injury crisis has struck following their 1-1 draw with Southampton at the weekend, leaving his squad worse for wear.
Portuguese winger Diogo Jota made his comeback from injury on Saturday as a substitute when replacing Patrick Cutrone just after the hour mark.
Nuno wouldn’t have wanted to rush the 22-year-old back into action, but he may well have to feature at the national stadium.
Both centre-back Ryan Bennett and Ruben Neves were forced off through injury against Southampton, adding to Pedro Neto, Romain Saiss and Morgan Gibbs-White on the sidelines.
Reverting back to the 3-4-3 system would see Wolves cope best in their absence as their only two fit senior midfielders can feature in Joao Moutinho and Leander Dendoncker.

This also hands a place at right wing-back for Matt Doherty with Adama Traore playing behind Raul Jimenez in the attack.
The Portuguese manager is left with no option but to play Jesus Vallejo and Conor Coady together with Bennett potentially out.
It’s either that or he calls on the inexperience of Max Kilman, which isn’t out of the realms of possibility as the 22-year-old’s only appearance this season was against Pyunik in the qualifiers.
The rest of the squad should remain much the same, provided the players have made the trip unscathed and that everyone has remembered their passport.
