Here’s our anticipated lineup for Wolverhampton Wanderers in their upcoming Premier League clash with Sheffield United this Saturday. Wolverhampton Wanderers have the chance to climb into the top half of the Premier League table when they face Sheffield United away from home this Saturday afternoon. They are currently on a five-game unbeaten streak, and Gary O’Neil’s team is full of confidence, trailing Brentford by just one point in the standings.
In their recent match at Molineux, the Old Gold held Newcastle United to a draw, following impressive victories over AFC Bournemouth and Manchester City, along with draws against Aston Villa and Luton Town. The expectation is to secure all three points this weekend, especially considering Sheffield United’s poor form.
Sheffield United’s manager, Paul Heckingbottom, is under immense pressure, having failed to lead his team to a single win in the first 10 matches of the season. Their only draw came against Everton, with nine defeats leaving the newly promoted side in a precarious position.
Despite the glaring contrast in form between the two teams, Wolverhampton Wanderers must not underestimate their opponents. As a result, we believe that Gary O’Neil will opt for a strong starting lineup. Here are the 11 Wanderers players we anticipate will take the field at Bramall Lane.
1. GK – Jose Sa
Made a couple of errors against Newcastle but was in good form beforehand and undoubtedly remains as first choice in goal.
2. RB – Nelson Semedo
An injury to a key player means Wolves are likelier to stick to a back four rather than a three. Semedo is ahead of Matt Doherty in the pecking order as it stands.
3. CB – Max Kilman
The new skipper has worked well on the right side of a back three when called upon and is able to venture out with driving runs.
4. CB – Craig Dawson
Doesn’t seem to ever put on a bad performance. The 33-year-old is not only a leader at the back but also a great physical presence.
