    First shot at goal - and it's not a bad one. Wolves striker Raul Jimenez sharply turns away from Harry Winks about 20 yards out and lashes one just over the Spurs bar.

    Sissoko could drop back and go alongside Harry Winks centrally.

    Lamela could also take a deeper position, with Son and Moura on the flanks supporting Kane.

    What's happening on the pitch, you ask. Not a great deal at the moment. Spurs have a spell of possession in the Wolves final third, but Lucas Moura can't get a pass from the left under control and Wolves clear.

    Dembele is helped onto a stretcher at the side of the pitch and a bulky ice pack is wrapped around his ankle. Looks more effective than the bag of frozen peas that treats my football injuries.

    As we suspected, Mousa Dembele's evening is over before it really started. Think his only touch was the kick-off...

    On sprints Son Heung-min in his place.

    Wolves enjoy a good spell of possession as Jonny aims to make in-roads down the left flank. Kieran Tripper hammers it clear. 'Ave it!

    Dembele is still getting treatment on the touchline as the game gets going again. Think it will need more than an ice-cold compress...

    Dembele is still down as the Spurs subs go for a run down the touchline. The Belgian is up on his feet and limps off very heavily with the help of the Spurs medical team. Can't see him carrying on...

    Not the way he wanted his 250th Spurs appearance to go.

    This doesn't look good for Mousa Dembele... the Spurs midfielder falls awkwardly after being taken out in the melee when team-mate Ben Davies slides in on Helder Costa.

    Dembele clutches his ankle straight away and stays down for well over a minute as the medical staff run on...

  11. KICK-OFFpublished at 19:46 Greenwich Mean Time 3 November 2018

    Wolves 0-0 Tottenham

    Ref Mike Dean does a quick head count, toots his whistle and then Spurs midfielder Mousa Dembele kicks the ball backwards.

    And that means it is game on.

    The floodlights, dimmed for the Last Post, are turned back up as a round of applause greets the end of the minute's silence.

    The home fans break out into song as 'Hi Ho Wolverhampton!" blasts out of the Molineux speakers.

    A warm embrace between Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo and his Spurs counterpart Mauricio Pochettino on the touchline before the players stand around the centre circle.

    A minute's silence will be held to mark Remembrance Sunday, which is on 11 November. The players, wearing shirts with embroidered poppies, stand arm in arm.

    Fans in the Steve Bull Stand hold up a mosaic of 4,272 poppies, representing those from Wolverhampton who died in the war.

    The victims of the helicopter crash at Leicester City are also remembered, with players from both sides wearing black armbands.

    For Spurs it's a welcome chance to get away from the gridiron surface at Wembley and play on a decent pitch following their defeat at home to Manchester City on Monday.

    They enjoyed a 3-1 win at West Ham in the League Cup during the week, but are likely to find Wolves to be more stubborn opponents at Molineux.

    Nuno Espirito Santo's side don't concede many goals but don't score many either.

    They managed to lose at Brighton last week despite being the better side and registering 25 attempts on goal. It's the first time they've lost successive games during his tenure and like Spurs they will be keen to get back to winning ways after making a strong start to the season.

    A poignant moment as Molineux applauds in memory of Leicester owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha, Nusara Suknamai, Kaveporn Punpare, Eric Swaffer and Izabela Roza Lechowicz.

    Wolves managing director Laurie Dalrymple and club legend Steve Bull lay royal blue floral tributes in the centre circle.

    Lawro's prediction

    I was surprised that Wolves were beaten by Brighton last weekend, but that was another lesson for them about life in the top flight - and how you can still be beaten even if you have the better of a game.

    It will be interesting to see if Wolves manage to have the majority of play and possession in this game, and how they approach it.

    Prediction: 0-2
