    Wolves will aim to extend their unbeaten streak in the Premier League to five games when they welcome Everton to Molineux on Monday night.

    Bruno Lage’s men have picked up three wins and a draw from their past four outings and sit eleventh in the table on 13 points.

    Everton, on the other hand, find themselves eighth – one point ahead of Wolves – having failed to win any of their previous three games.

    Wolves made a poor start to the campaign, losing each of their opening three matches without scoring a single goal.

    Since then, however, they have only lost one of their last six Premier League outings – picking up four wins and a draw in the process.

    Hwang Hee-chan has hit the ground running following his move from RB Leipzig, netting four goals in his six league appearances in England.

    Raul Jimenez has continued to find his feet again after missing the majority of the previous campaign. The Mexican forward has a goal and two assists this term.

    It is worth noting that Wolves have won just one of their last six home games in all competitions and have failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their previous eight matches at Molineux.

    Everton, by contrast, are extremely strong away from home, having lost only three of their last 20 away games in all competitions.

    That said, the Toffees have only managed to win one of their previous six encounters across all competitions.

    Everton made a strong start to life under Rafa Benitez, losing just one of their opening seven league games this term – picking up four wins and two draws along the way.

    However, they head into Monday’s clash on a three-game winless stretch after suffering a heavy 5-2 loss to Watford last time out.

    Head-to-head: Trends show that each of the last three meetings between Wolves and Everton at Molineux have dished up over 2.5 goals.

    Everton did the league double over Wolves last season, winning 2-1 away from home before clinching a 1-0 victory at Goodison Park.

    Team news: Wolves are still without injured duo Pedro Neto and Jonny, while Willy Boly and Fernando Marcal are a both a doubt for Monday’s clash.

    As for Everton, Abdoulaye Doucoure, Andre Gomes, Yerry Mina, Fabian Delph and Dominic Calvert-Lewin remain sidelined through injury.

    Regardless of the contrasting form of these two sides, Wolves’ poor home record suggests that Everton can get something from this game.

    With that in mind, Forebet predicts that Wolves and Everton will play out a low-scoring draw, with both sides getting on the scoresheet.
