Injuries at Wolves and anticipated return dates prior to Luton Town
Birmingham-based Wolverhampton Wanderers newsLivestreaming the match at Luton Town in the Premier League
Wolves are getting back on track after Saturday’s 3-1 loss to Liverpool at home left them with just three points and four losses out of five in the Premier League so far. Gary O’Neil’s team played well enough to lead 1-0 at the break, but Jurgen Klopp’s team outplayed them in the second half with two goals in the final ten minutes to seal the victory.
Wolves must therefore play their next game, against Luton Town, as soon as possible. But in what condition is O’Neil’s team? They are doing well in terms of injuries.
Initially, it was left back Rayan Ait-Nouri, who had to leave the game after 66 minutes and was replaced by Hugu Bueno. The international player from Algeria had some positive news from Gary O’Neil, who stated: “Rayan was simply type of muscle tiredness really. He shouldn’t experience any issues that persist over the weekend, in my opinion. He will most likely only require a few days to heal.
Ait-Nouri, who struggled to make the team under Julen Lopetegui last season, has started four of Wolves’ five Premier League games and performed generally well. The excellent news about his injury therefore indicates that he will probably start versus Luton, with Hugo Bueno filling in off the bench.

According to Os Donos da Bola presenter Neto, Palmeiras midfielder Raphael Veiga will leave the South American giants to move to Wolves in 2024.
Speaking in an interview, Neto’s claims have been relayed by O TV Foco and transcribed by Sport Witness, as he stated: “Raphael Veiga will say goodbye to Palmeiras next year. He is going to Wolverhampton, and the transfer will be completed next year. If this doesn’t happen, Palmeiras can criticise me at will.
“And to replace Veiga, Palmeiras have their eyes on a new midfielder, Pedrinho, currently at Atlético-MG. So, the situation is as follows: Palmeiras is about to sign Pedrinho for €15m, offering €10m plus Kevin. Therefore, at the end of the year, Veiga will go to England.”
According to Transfermarkt, Veiga has had an incredible 2023 across all competitions, registering 16 goals and 12 assists for the Brazilian giants in 43 games.
The attacking midfielder, regarded as a star player owing to his continuous goal contributions, has been a consistent presence in the Brazilian Serie A, piling up an average of 3.4 shots on goal per match and a match rating of 7.42/10, according to WhoScored.
Veiga has recovered 2.8 balls per game in the league, according to SofaScore, and is capable of putting in a defensive shift with his offensive exploits.
