Wolves vs Southampton team news

Southampton are on a good run of form but today face a side who has already got one over them earlier in the season.

Ralph Hasenhuttl has had some mixed fortunes in terms of team news.

Kyle Walker-Peters is back available after serving a ban and a period of Covid-related self-isolation, as is other full-backs Yan Valery and Thierry Small, who return after a suspension and another Covid-19 case respectively.

Saints, however, are missing Mohamed Elyounoussi, Theo Walcott, Tino Livramento, Will Smallbone and Moussa Djenepo, the latter representing Mali in the African Cup of Nations tournament.

Wolves manager Bruno Lage is also having to contend with his fair share of absentees today.

Romain Saiss is away on international duty with Morocco in the same competition as Djenepo, while Willy Boly, Hwang Hee-chan, Jonny Otto, Pedro Neto and Yerson Mosquera are all out injured.
