    A pretty exciting match-up this: two teams within touching distance of the top six.

    Wolves seem to be on the up - victory today would make three consecutive top-flight wins for the first time since 1980.

    Bournemouth had a very good October - that's why they start a point ahead of the home side - but since have won only once, losing five from their past six league games.

    It's an interesting one, tough to call.
