Here is our Wolves predicted lineup.<\/p>\n<h2>Wolves Predicted Lineup vs Fulham As Wolves Fight for Premier League Survival<\/h2>\n<h3>How Wolves Have Lined Up Recently<\/h3>\n<p>In recent fixtures, Wolves have stuck to a 3-4-2-1 formation under Victor Pereira. This tactic emphasises a solid defensive structure complemented by a dynamic attacking trio. In Wolves&#8217; last match, a 1-0 win over Bournemouth in the Premier League, they went with Jos\u00e9 S\u00e1 in goal, a back three of Matt Doherty, Santiago Bueno and Toti Gomes. The midfield consisted of N\u00e9lson Semedo, Andr\u00e9, Jo\u00e3o Gomes and Rayan A\u00eft-Nouri. It finished with an attacking trio of Jean-Ricner Bellegarde, Marshall Munetsi and Matheus Cunha.<\/p>\n<h3>Wolves Recent Form And Tactics<\/h3>\n<p>Wolves come into this match in 17th place in the Premier League with 22 points from 26 games, hovering just above the relegation zone.

Wolves have favoured a 3-4-2-1 formation with a greater focus on defensive structure, disciplined pressing, and quick attacking transitions. Wolves have often dominated possession in the deeper areas but sometimes lack penetration in the final third.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2025\/02\/12\/manchester-united-antony-real-betis-permanent-sale\/\" target=\"_self\">Opinion: Manchester United Get Chance to Offload Worst Ever Signing\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Injuries to Consider<\/h3>\n<p>Gon\u00e7alo Guedes is awaiting an MRI scan on his knee and is <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.wolves.co.uk\/news\/features\/20250224-preview-wolves-vs-fulham\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">unlikely to feature<\/a>.
