Latest Wolverhampton vs Leicester City team information

Wolves’ third-choice goalkeeper Daniel Bentley was surprisingly given the starting spot at Old Trafford as both Jose Sa (back injury) and Sam Johnstone (unclear reason) were absent. Jose Sa picked up the injury during the warm-up and is still uncertain for the next match.

Wolves are also without Hwang Hee-chan (unclear reason), Jean-Ricner Bellegarde (calf) and Pedro Lima (ankle). Sasa Kalajdzic, Enso Gonzalez, Yerson Mosquera and Leon Chiwone are still recovering from long-term knee injuries.

Despite Sarabia's stunning goal at Old Trafford, he could continue to play second fiddle to Marshall Munetsi and Matheus Cunha – who needs four more goals to break Raul Jimenez's single-season Premier League goalscoring record.

As for Leicester, the medical department currently has only one long-term injury, Abdul Fatawu (knee). Harry Winks is still out of the first team after a conflict with coach Van Nistelrooy.

With the team certain to be relegated, coach Van Nistelrooy will likely rotate and give opportunities to young players, although he has no intention of "giving up" on the rest of the season.

One notable name is 15-year-old prodigy Jeremy Monga – who has become the second youngest player ever to play in the Premier League. If he starts in an upcoming match, Monga will set a record as the youngest player ever to start in the history of the competition.

Latest expected lineup for Wolverhampton vs Leicester City

Wolverhampton Wanderers:
Bentley; Agbadou, Toti, Bueno; Semedo, Andre, Gomes, Ait-Nouri; Munetsi, Cunha; Larsen

Leicester City:
Hermansen; Pereira, Coady, Faes, Thomas; Ndidi, Soumare; Ayew, El Khannouss, Mavididi; Daka

Latest football commentary on Wolverhampton vs Leicester City

No team in the Premier League is in better form than Wolverhampton, the home team on Saturday, who are the only team to have won their last five Premier League games – a run that has allayed any fears of relegation.

After defeating Southampton, West Ham, Ipswich and Tottenham in turn, Wolves continued to create a shock when they defeated Manchester United right at Old Trafford during the Easter break, thanks to Pablo Sarabia's superb free-kick.

Now that they have secured their place in the top flight, Wolves – who are currently above Tottenham and only behind Man United on goal difference – can comfortably finish the rest of the season, while the club's board begin to prepare for a turbulent summer.

Rumours of Matheus Cunha moving to Man United are growing clearer, while Joao Gomes and Rayan Ait-Nouri are also likely to attract attention in the transfer market. However, before leaving, they still want to help Wolves make history.

If Wolves win on Saturday, they will have won six consecutive Premier League games for the first time in the club’s history, with the last time they won six in the top flight was in 1970.

While Wolves are preparing for next season in the Premier League, Leicester are facing the prospect of being forced back into the Championship, after officially being relegated after losing to Liverpool last weekend.

Ruud van Nistelrooy’s side tried to defend against the pressure from the soon-to-be champions, but were eventually knocked down by a deflected volley from Trent Alexander-Arnold. The 1-0 defeat officially confirmed Leicester’s long-awaited relegation from the top flight.

The relegation left veteran captain Jamie Vardy furious and hurling criticism on social media, reflecting the frustration of many fans throughout the season.

Leicester’s only remaining target is to try and finish 18th – above Ipswich Town – which would not save them from relegation, but that looks unlikely given they are on a 10-game winless run in the Premier League.

The only bright spot is that Leicester’s only two positive results in 2025 have come away from home – a win at Tottenham and a 2-2 draw at Brighton. But remember, they were thrashed 3-0 by Wolves in December and are now in danger of losing the league double – something that hasn’t happened since 1958.
