Wolves will be full of confidence when they return to Premier League action following the international break on Saturday.
The team from the Black Country have avoided defeat in each of their last three, and secured a first win of the season at Molineux against Southampton before the break.
Fulham will have the home field advantage. Marco Silva’s side have won each of their last two, and a third straight victory could see them end the weekend inside the Champions League spots.

Fulham’s excellent recent form will make them a standout bet this weekend at -155. A Wolves win is an outside chance on the moneyline at +445.
