Dawson will be a big miss for Wolves

Gary O'Neil won't feel too sorry for his opposite number as he is dealing with his own absences. Craig Dawson, who has been a rock at the back, will be missing after picking up his fifth yellow card of the campaign in their win against Tottenham before the international break.

While talisman Pedro Neto remains on the sidelines with a hamstring injury. O'Neil provided an update on the Portuguese winger in midweek, saying there is 'no exact time frame' for his return but the 23-year-old is 'probably ahead' of where the club expected him to be at this stage of his recovery.
