In that match, Jos\u00e9 S\u00e1 started in goal behind a defensive setup featuring Santiago Bueno, Ladislav Krej\u010d\u00ed, and Matt Doherty. The wing-back roles were filled by Jackson Tchatchoua and David M\u00f8ller Wolfe, while Jo\u00e3o Gomes, Matues Man\u00e9, and Andr\u00e9 operated in midfield.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1339\" data-end=\"1471\">Further forward, Angel Gomes supported the attack, with striker Adam Armstrong providing the focal point.<\/p>\n<h3>Wolves Recent Form &amp; Tactics<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1507\" data-end=\"1773\">Wolves used a 3-5-1-1 system against Liverpool, which allowed them to remain compact defensively while transitioning quickly on the counterattack. That structure proved effective in midweek, as Edwards\u2019 side absorbed pressure before striking late on.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1775\" data-end=\"2050\">Despite being bottom of the Premier League table, Wolves have shown signs of improvement in recent weeks. They have now picked up several impressive results at Molineux, including victories over Aston Villa and Liverpool. <span class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2052\" data-end=\"2252\">In this FA Cup clash, Wolves are expected to adopt a similar approach: a disciplined defensive block, energetic wing-back play, and quick transitions through the midfield.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2052\" data-end=\"2252\"><strong>Read More:<\/strong><span> <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2025\/07\/30\/top-5-wolves-managers-of-all-time\/\" target=\"_self\">Wolves Top Five Managers Of All Time<\/a><\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"2052\" data-end=\"2252\">Wolves Team News<\/h3>\n<p>During his <a  href=\"https:\/\/www.expressandstar.com\/sport\/2026\/03\/05\/wolves-to-make-goalkeeper-decision-for-fa-cup-clash\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pre-match press conference<\/a>, Edwards said that Jos\u00e9 S\u00e1 will be rested due to an ongoing ankle injury. He also had this to say on squad rotation:<\/p>\n<p><span>&#8220;Squad rotation? <\/span><span>&#8220;It&#8217;s hard for me to prioritise either game, now tomorrow is the most important game.
