Wolves v Brighton


Sky Bet Championship

Venue: Molineux Stadium
Date: Friday 14th April 2017
Kick-off: 17:00 BST
Referee: Geoff Eltringham
Assistants: John Flynn, Billy Smallwood
Fourth official: Andy Davies



Wolves goalkeeper Carl Ikeme is still struggling with a hamstring injury so Andy Lonergan is set to keep his place against Championship leaders Brighton.

Helder Costa (ankle) has missed Wolves' past two games but may feature.

Long-term absentees Connor Goldson and Shane Duffy are the only Brighton players unavailable for the Seagulls' trip to Molineux.

Full-backs Gaetan Bong and Liam Rosenior will hope to feature after being rested for the win at QPR.

Weather in Wolverhampton looks delightful.



(I appreciate that's a very boring post)
Nothing wrong with 'boring' today. I'm hoping for a very boring match and a very boring routine win for The Albion! And if by about 9.45 we can start bandying around that very boring expression 'Champions Elect' I'll be very happy indeed!
