There will be a two minute's silence before tonight's game as a mark of respect to Prince Philip.

Nuno on Fulham (via the official Wolves website): "We have analysed all their aspects and Fulham is a good team. It’s a good team, has good players, so it’s going to be a very tough game for us. We know that each and every match of the Premier League is tough, so we must prepare ourselves to compete tomorrow against a very good team."

Wolves could yet be dragged into a relegation scrap, although that is unlikely. Nine points separates them from the bottom three, but lose tonight and you just never know because nerves would jangle. They're without a win in five and currently occupy 14th in what can only be described as a miserable campaign considering the success they've enjoyed over the last couple of years.

Parker: "I’m relishing this challenge, and the challenge that we’ve got ahead of us is seven games to put ourselves in an unbelievable position. We’re going to fight, scrap and do everything in our power to give ourselves a chance to try and stay in this division this season. It would be an incredible achievement for the team and for the football club and that’s my sole aim and and I’m looking forward to that."

Time is running out for Fulham in their battle to beat the drop - only six games remain after tonight. As it stands, they're three points adrift of Newcastle having played a game more. You feel tonight is must-win for the Cottagers.

Did you know? Fulham have never lost a home Premier League match against Wolves in five previous meetings (W2 D3). Their last home top-flight defeat to Wolves was in August 1967.

Nuno Espirito Santo keeps faith in the Wolves team that lost 3-2 to West Ham on Friday night as he looks to bounce back from back-to-back defeats. He's also sticking with a back four despite the fact he hasn't kept a clean sheet using this system all season. Joao Moutinho is fit enough for the bench.

Scott Parker makes just one change from the Fulham side that lost to Fulham, with Antonee Robinson coming in for the injured Ademola Lookman.
