Brighton are in trouble near the bottom of the Premier League, with only point separating them from the relegation zone. The Seagulls are winless in their last eight matches in the top flight, including their 1-0 defeat last time out to Crystal Palace. The pressure is increasing on Graham Potter and his team. They've only won twice on the road this term and are dire need of another victory to put distance between themselves and the relegation zone.
Wolves are riding the crest of a wave after producing a comeback win over Tottenham last time out. Nuno Espirito Santo's men were down twice against Spurs, but rallied with strikes from Matt Doherty and Diogo Jota before Raul Jimenez secured the victory. The Midlands outfit are three points off the pace of Chelsea in fourth place and another win today by two goals would lift them above Manchester United and the Blues into the final Champions League place.
Good afternoon and welcome to the live commentary of the Premier League clash between Wolves and Brighton and Hove Albion at Molineux.
Wolves need to be more clinical in possession in their bid to move into the top four this afternoon. They've cut Brighton open on a couple of occasions, but the final ball has been lacking. Nuno Espirito Santo will be urging greater poise from his team in the final third.
Thanks for joining our commentary this afternoon. Until next time, goodbye.
Wolves are next in action in their Europa League contest against Olympiacos on Thursday. Brighton host Arsenal in the Premier League next Saturday.
