The first Premier League match-up of the week sees Friday night football return for its second instalment this month, and below you will find all the latest Fulham vs Wolves team news and injury updates.

Fulham vs Wolves Team News & Injury Update
Fulham Team News
Manager Marco Silva may be without top scorer Aleksander Mitrovic once again with the Serbian still struggling with a hamstring injury, although the Cottagers managed to claim a slender but vital victory in his absence last time out, away at fellow European hopefuls Brighton.
Although Carlos Vinicius started on the bench, he was on hand to set up Solomon’s winning goal last weekend and his starring substitute appearance may well warrant a starting spot against Wolves.
As for Solomon himself, his goal proved decisive in the previous fixture and he may be handed a first Premier League start by Silva, with Harry Wilson failing to make a real impact.
Alongside Mitrovic, Neeskens Kebano and Tom Cairney are the only other absentees for the hosts heading into Friday’s fixture.
Predicted Fulham XI: Leno; Tete, Diop, Ream, Robinson; Reed, Palhinha; Solomon, Pereira, Willian; Vinicius
Wolves Team News
Julen Lopetegui has galvanised the Wolf Pack since being named Bruno Lage’s successor, picking up points in four of his six league fixtures.
The Spaniard may opt for a shake-up to the starting 11 that fell to a disappointing defeat against Bournemouth last weekend, and Mario Lemina will more than likely return to the midfield alongside Ruben Neves after serving his suspension.
However, Wolves remain plagued by a number of injuries, the most notable of which being Hwang Hee-Chan who is expected to miss a number of matches after picking up a hamstring problem, while summer signing Saša Kalajdžić, Boubacar Traoré and Chiquinho are also ruled out for this one.
Predicted Wolves XI: Sa; Semedo, Kilman, Dawson, Bueno; Lemina, Neves, Nunes; Traore, Cunha, Sarabia
