The Big Sam effect?

Wolves are stumbling along at the moment and could do with a big win against relegation strugglers West Brom to give them a boost.

The last time Wolves won in the league was back on 15 December in that 2-1 victory over Chelsea.

They fell to a second-half winner from Everton in Tuesday's 2-1 defeat but they will fancy their chances at home today.

West Brom are in trouble. They remain six points from safety and Sam Allardyce has yet to spark a response since his arrival.

They can close the gap on third-bottom Fulham to one point until at least this evening though if they get a win.

Fulham forward Aleksandar Mitrovic has returned to light training and could be available again, having missed Wednesday's draw with Tottenham.

Mario Lemina and Tom Cairney are unavailable because of illness and a knee problem respectively.

Chelsea defenders Reece James and Andreas Christensen have both recovered from injuries.

Midfielder N'Golo Kante, who has been nursing a hamstring strain, will be absent anyway because of suspension.

Wolves

Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo to BT Sport: "Adama Traore didn't play the last game because he has a problem. He is better and ready to go. Willy Boly had an injury so was out for some while but he is good. It is always a good time to come back. When we have players out it is a problem so good to have more problems.

"It's been difficult to manage all the situations. We will try to find solutions. Young players have come in and made their debuts in the Premier League but with the belief they can do well. We want to compete, play well and play a good game. We know the importance of the game and what it means for us as Wolves fans and a club. It's a big game.

"It is about staying together as a unit and supporting each other. That's the most important thing."

For the first time in his three-and-a-half years in charge, Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo is getting flak from his own supporters.

Promotion and two seventh placed Premier League finishes are all well and good but Nuno's tactics are starting to be questioned and whilst the major injury suffered by Raul Jimenez could not have been predicted, some fans feel the manager's desire to work with a small squad has led to a lack of back-up.

Five points from eight games since Jimenez's injury is not a good return and whilst a win over Wolves' fiercest rivals would stabilise the situation, defeat would bring more criticism.

Football Focus is kicking off now and they are doing their mid-season awards (see 11.26 entry). Get on it.

A third successive defeat would equal Leeds' longest run of losses under head coach Marcelo Bielsa.

But an eighth win of the season would equal Leeds' total number of victories from their last top-flight season in 2003-04.

They have conceded 33 goals in 17 league games this season - just two fewer than in 46 Championship fixtures last season.

There have been a league-high 63 goals scored in Premier League matches involving Leeds this season.

Meanwhile, Brighton are winless in nine Premier League games, the longest current run in the division (D5, L4). The club's top-flight record is 10 matches without a victory.

Albion are averaging 12.3 shots per game, their best return in the Premier League. However, just 28% have been on target, their lowest Premier League ratio.

West Ham goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski could make his first appearance of 2020 if he passes a fitness test on a thigh strain.

Defender Fabian Balbuena is isolating after coming into contact with someone who tested positive for Covid-19.

Burnley full-back Charlie Taylor, who missed the defeat by Manchester United because of a hamstring problem, is again doubtful.

Manager Sean Dyche has no other injury problems ahead of the trip to London.

Wolves manager Nuno Espirito Santo sums it up in his programme notes ahead of the game.

"We know Wolves' rivalry with West Brom goes back almost 150 years and is one of the most historic in world football.

"Without your support inside Molineux, it is certainly not how I hoped I would experience my first Black Country derby."

The Seagulls were decent against Manchester City on Wednesday and only lost 1-0, but it doesn't change the fact they cannot win a game at the moment.

Graham Potter's side have got some good players, are well organised and well coached, and they are easy on the eye - but they don't score enough goals.

Maybe sometimes getting the ball up the pitch quicker, before the opposition gets everyone back, might help. With the way Leeds press, playing out from the back against them probably isn't the best idea anyhow.

Prediction: 2-0

Depending on exactly when Sam Johnstone tested positive, he could miss two West Brom games.

The Baggies visit West Ham on Tuesday and Manchester City the following Tuesday.

Leeds United midfielder Kalvin Phillips is suspended for one game after he received a fifth booking of the season during the defeat at Tottenham.

Tyler Roberts has recovered from illness, while Diego Llorente is available following injury.

Injury-hit Brighton & Hove Albion welcome back midfielder Yves Bissouma from suspension, while Steven Alzate could feature following an illness.

Six players remain out, including new signing Jakub Moder and Danny Welbeck.

Wolves winger Adama Traore has gone 24 league appearances without a goal or assist.

West Bromwich Albion

Sam Allardyce has confirmed Sam Johnstone and Matt Phillips will miss today’s game after testing positive for Covid-19, while Grady Diangana is sidelined through injury.

The big team news is the absence of goalkeeper Sam Johnstone from the West Brom side.

Johnstone has not missed a single minute of a league game since arriving at the club and he was expected to return after sitting out the FA Cup defeat at Blackpool.

Robert Snodgrass is the first of what Sam Allardyce hopes will be a number of new signings this month.

Wolves' home defeat by Everton on Tuesday means they have lost five of their past eight league games, and they have won only one of them. The biggest reason for that is their lack of goals.

Nuno Espirito Santo's side went sixth in the table when they beat Arsenal at the end of November, the same game that Raul Jimenez sustained a serious head injury that has sidelined him since.

Without him, Wolves have clearly struggled to score - they have managed more than one goal in only one of those eight matches - but I'd be surprised if they don't create chances against West Brom.

Prediction: 2-0

Lawro's full predictions v You Me At Six drummer Dan Flint

Wolves pair Adama Traore and Willy Boly return to the side.

Traore has recovered from a hamstring problem and Boly had been out for a month with a thigh injury. Defender Rayan Ait Nouri and attacker Morgan Gibbs-White, who both started in the 2-1 defeat by Everton, make way.

Wolves: Rui Patricio, Nelson Semedo, Coady, Boly, Saiss, Dendoncker, Neves, Joao Moutinho, Traore, Silva, Pedro Neto.

Subs: Hoever, Ait Nouri, Gibbs-White, Vitinha, Ruddy, Cutrone, Shabani, Kilman, Corbeanu.

West Brom's new signing Robert Snodgrass will make his debut after being named in the starting XI.

In total, the Baggies make five changes from the line-up that began in the FA Cup defeat by Blackpool last week.

Callum Robinson, Matheus Pereira, Romaine Sawyers and Dara O'Shea also come into the team while David Button retains his place in goal.

West Brom: Button, O'Shea, Ajayi, Bartley, Gibbs, Livermore, Sawyers, Matheus Pereira, Snodgrass, Grosicki, Robinson.

Subs: Lonergan, Furlong, Robson-Kanu, Krovinovic, Ivanovic, Edwards, Peltier, Kipre, Field.
