After a dismal start to their Premier League campaign, Wolverhampton Wanderers will look to use the Carabao Cup third-round tie against Everton as an opportunity to revive their season. V\u00edtor Pereira’s side sits at the bottom of the Premier League table after five straight defeats. The cup fixture offers Wolves both a chance to rotate their squad and a potential momentum boost. Here is our Wolves predicted lineup.<\/p>\n
Under Pereira, Wolves have stuck mainly with their 3-4-2-1 formation. Last time out against Leeds United<\/a>, Jos\u00e9 Sa returned between the sticks. The defensive line was made up of Emmanuel Agbadou, Toti Gomes, and Yerson Mosquera. The midfield consisted of Jackson Tchatchoua, Jo\u00e3o Gomes, Ladislav Krej\u010d\u00ed, and Rodrigo Gomes.<\/p>\n Read More:<\/strong> What Wolves Worst League Start in History is Telling Us<\/a><\/p>\n Fer L\u00f3pez, Jean-Ricner Bellegarde, and Tolu Arokodare made up the forward line. Jorgen Strand Larsen is usually preferred as the striker due to his physicality.<\/p>\n The form table makes for grim reading. Wolves have lost all five of their opening Premier League games and haven’t won in the League since April. However, they did pick up the only win of the season against West Ham <\/a>in the second round of the cup.<\/p>\n Read More:<\/strong> No Wins Since April: Wolves Gamble on Vitor Pereira<\/a><\/p>\n The Wanderers tend to try to stay compact without the ball, pressing selectively rather than committing numbers, before using transitions to try to exploit space. The wing-backs remain key to stretching opposition defences, while midfielders provide balance to avoid being overrun. While the strategy shows promise, execution has faltered under the strain of low confidence and costly errors.<\/p>\n The manager has said that a cup win will give his side confidence:<\/p>\n “It would give us confidence,” said Pereira<\/a>. “We don’t have time to think a lot about this (Leeds)game.<\/p>\n We need to focus on the next one, we need to improve ourselves, I need to improve myself and my players, and we’ll try to do it.”<\/p>\nWolves Recent Form and Tactics<\/h3>\n
