Match Preview:
Rob Edwards's side have collected a respectable five points from their last nine on offer in the Premier League, claiming draws on Manchester United and Everton's turfs either side of their long-awaited first league success of the season vs. West Ham United.
Not for the first time this term, a cup competition offered Wolves further respite over the weekend, as the rejuvenated Jorgen Strand Larsen - whose name continues to crop up in transfer conversations - struck a hat-trick in a 6-1 battering of Shrewsbury.
While the hosts return to league action still propping up the 20-team standings, but victory could take them to within just three points of 19th-placed Burnley, as well as bringing them to the brink of Derby County's infamous 11-point record.

Renowned for their atrocious away form at the start of the term, Newcastle still boast just the two Premier League road victories all season long, although one of those came at Burnley in their most recent sojourn away from St James' Park.
That Turf Moor triumph marked the start of a four-match winning sequence for Eddie Howe's men, who benefitted from the latest-ever Premier League winner on record against Leeds United - Harvey Barnes's 101-minute and 48-second strike - before edging out Bournemouth in the FA Cup on penalties.
However, the Magpies are fighting the hilliest of uphill battles to retain their grip on the EFL Cup after Tuesday's 2-0 semi-final first-leg loss to Man City, who snapped Newcastle's 13-game unbeaten run at St James' Park and became the first visiting team to keep a clean sheet at the venue this season.

Match Prediction: Wolves 1-2 Newcastle United
Wolves will have more days' worth of rest under their belts and have finally developed a sense of solidity under Edwards, but will that extend to getting the better of a goal-happy Newcastle? Despite all the progress the hosts have made in the space of a few weeks, Sunday's test should prove one step too far, and Howe's men have our vote to return to victorious ways.
