Team News: Wolverhampton Wanderers unchanged for Brentford clash

Wolves unchanged for Brentford clash

Wolverhampton Wanderers head coach Kenny Jackett has opted to retain the same starting lineup for Brentford's visit to Molineux on Sunday afternoon.

A Nouha Dicko goal proved enough for Wolves to defeat Watford at Vicarage Road on Boxing Day and extend their unbeaten run in the Championship to three games.

However, full-back Matt Doherty is free to return to the squad after sitting out the past three matches through suspension.

As for Brentford, manager Mark Warburton has decided to keep Sam Saunders among the substitutes, despite him netting twice against Ipswich Town two days ago.

However, both Harlee Dean and Toumani Diagouraga have dropped to the bench as the visitors look to complete a double over Wolves, after thrashing them 4-0 earlier this season.

Wolverhampton Wanderers XI: Ikeme; Iorfa, Batth, Stearman, Hause; McDonald, Price, van La Parra, Edwards, Sako; Dicko Subs: Kuszczak, Doherty, Henry, Clarke, Graham, Evans, Ebanks-Landell

Brentford XI: Button, Bidwell, Craig, Douglas, Odubajo, Dallas, Judge, Gray, Pritchard, Jota, Tarkowski Subs: Dean, Saunders, Bonham, Toral, Diagouraga, Yennaris, Proschwitz
