Key events
Andre is making his full debut for Wolves and frankly I could tell you next to nothing about him but the club seem to being doing well in the Brazilian market so it will be interesting to see how he performs against an experienced Newcastle midfield.
Fun and games at Newcastle.

Preamble
It truly is a never ending rollercoaster of fun in the Premier League as winless Wolves host Newcastle at Molineux. Another summer of being forced to sell their best players has resulted in shaky start for Gary O’Neil’s men as their new arrivals look to fill the gaps left by Maximilian Kilman and Pedro Neto.
In Wolves’ defence they have come up against Arsenal and Chelsea in the opening weeks of the campaign, although shipping six against the Blues at Molineux would have done little for morale.
Newcastle seem to be sold as being crisis over their own struggles in the transfer market but, according to the league table, they are unbeaten thus far, winning two of their opening three fixtures. Last time out they beat Tottenham and a third victory of the season would show that Eddie Howe is still doing a fine job in the north east.
Let’s hope for a cracker!
Kick-off: 4.30pm BST
