Five minutes to go...
A reminder of team news as we approach kick-off at the Molineux Stadium...
Maybe too loud at the Molineux?
Sky Sports' Patrick Rowe at the Molineux:
"It's loud at the Molineux. But not because the atmosphere is rocking, the speakers are just very loud.
"Some might even say overwhelming."
Saints struggling in front of goal
Southampton have scored just seven goals in the Premier League this season, fewer than any other side.
Indeed, Saints have scored more goals in their three EFL Cup matches this term (9) than they have in their 10 league games.
Warm reception for Neves
Sky Sports' Patrick Rowe at the Molineux:
"Ruben Neves is shown on the big screen and the South Bank stand erupts into chants of his name.
"Really warm reception for the former midfielder."
Wolves under fire
Only Brentford (74) have faced more shots on target than Wolves in the Premier League this season (67).
Only in 2011-12 (7) have they averaged more shots on target faced per game in a single campaign in the competition than their 6.7 so far this term.
Last time out: Wolves 1-1 Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace saw a late goal from Jean-Philippe Mateta ruled out as Wolves held on to a 1-1 draw at the Molineux.
Last time out: Southampton 1-0 Everton
Southampton secured their first win of the season against Everton in their last outing.
The difference a win can make...

WATCH: Carsley discusses Harwood-Bellis England call-up
Interim England boss Lee Carsley has explained why he decided to give Southampton defender Taylor Harwood-Bellis his maiden call-up to the England squad.
Saints goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale has also returned to the Three Lions for the first time since Euro 2024.
Cunha impressing despite Wolves' struggles
Can Wolves turn their poor start around?
Wolves remain winless in their 10 Premier League games so far this season (D3 L7) – only in 1983-84 have they ever had a longer run without a win from the start of a league campaign (14), going on to finish bottom of the top-flight that season.
O'Neil: We are desperate to end the run
Wolves boss Gary O'Neil speaking in his programme notes:
"Similar to ourselves, Southampton have had a difficult start to their season and I know exactly what Russell has been going through, as well as how delighted and relieved he must have been feeling at full-time of their win over Everton last weekend.
"That is a feeling we are desperate to experience, and I can assure fans that we have been doing everything we can to try bring our unwanted run to an end this weekend."
Neves in attendance
Sky Sports' Patrick Rowe at the Molineux:
"Former Wolves midfielder Ruben Neves - who left the club to join Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal in 2023 - is in attendance today.
"He's currently walking around on crutches after undergoing surgery to solve a knee issue which will rule him out until the New Year.
"People are lining up for conversations with him. Still a very popular clearly!"

More derby day delight for Fulham?

A low-scoring affair?
Fulham’s five Premier League away games this season have seen just 11 goals scored (F5 A6) – only Arsenal’s (10) and Manchester United’s (9) games on the road have produced fewer.
Meanwhile, despite having had the seventh-highest number of shots in the Premier League this season (145), Crystal Palace have had fewer big chances than any other side so far this term (18).
One to watch: Emile Smith Rowe
Palace down to bare bones
Sky Sports' Peter Smith at Selhurst Park:
"In contrast to Fulham's array of attacking options off the bench, Palace are down to the bare bones.
"Their substitute options include two goalkeepers and three teenagers.
"Left winger Asher Agbinone (19), centre forward Zach Marsh (19) and right-back Caleb Kporha (18) will be hoping for a run out to join fellow youngster Justin Devenny on the pitch at Selhurst today."
Palace aiming to end win wait vs Fulham
Crystal Palace are winless in their last five Premier League games against Fulham (D4 L1), with each of the last three meetings ending in a draw.
Wilson among Fulham's threats from the bench
Sky Sports' Peter Smith at Selhurst Park:
"It's tough on Wilson not to get a start this afternoon after his brilliant injury-time double won the match for Fulham against Brentford on Monday night.
"I was there and I've never heard Craven Cottage so loud as when he headed (or should that be shouldered!) in the winner to complete the turnaround.
"Marco Silva will be hoping his Fulham side can take that momentum into today's match. They will certainly have threat on the bench if they need it with Wilson, Adama Traore and Rodrigo Muniz among their options."
Jones Knows: Low-scoring draw at Selhurst
Sky Sports' Lewis Jones:
It's a shame the market has given much more respect to Fulham than usual here as I was hoping to nick another nice price on their win chances. Both teams are priced up at 8/5 with Sky Bet for the win.
Fulham are priced up as the better team with the away factor thrown into the mix so I can let them win at those prices.
Plus, Palace are improving.
Oliver Glasner has got his team functioning out of possession now with their press but goals are going to be a problem without Eberechi Eze. They have only scored eight goals all season anyway, with their games averaging just 2.10 goals per game. No team have created fewer big chances either (18).
Fulham aren't exactly blessed with a plethora of natural finishers, though, and six of their seven games across all competitions have fallen under the 2.5 goals line. That's the bet here at 5/6 with Sky Bet.
SCORE PREDICTION: 1-1 | JONES KNOWS' BEST BET: Under 2.5 goals (5/6 with Sky Bet)
Two changes for Palace, same XI for Fulham
Crystal Palace have made two changes to the side which drew with Wolves last weekend, with Justin Devenny making his debut in midfield in place of the suspended Will Hughes.
Eddie Nketiah is out with a well-documented hamstring issue and Nathaniel Clyne is the one to come into the XI for Oliver Glasner's injury-hit side. A change of shape for Palace?
Meanwhile, Fulham name the same side which beat Brentford on Monday, meaning Harry Wilson is once again on the bench despite his injury-time heroics at Craven Cottage.
Who is Justin Devenny?
Justin Devenny makes his first start for Crystal Palace today.
The 21-year-old midfielder is captain of the Palace youth team and plays for Northern Ireland U21s.
He joined the club from Scottish Championship side Airdrieonians in 2023 and has since impressed for Palace's U21s.
After being included in Palace's pre-season tour and then on the bench against Chelsea in September, he gets a chance to show what he can do at Selhurst Park today...

Watch: Wilson turns it around in stoppage time for Fulham vs Brentford
Last time out: Palace in action-packed draw at Wolves
Good afternoon!
Hello and welcome to our live coverage of Crystal Palace vs Fulham from Selhurst Park!
It's a second London derby in the space of a week for Marco Silva's side - let's hope for the same amount of excitement and drama we saw in their 2-1 win over Brentford on Monday night!
Meanwhile, Palace will be hoping to maintain their recent much-needed run of positive results.

Lukic still out for Fulham
Sasa Lukic (shoulder) remains sidelined for Fulham, but boss Marco Silva faces no fresh injury concerns.
Harry Wilson could earn his first Premier League start of the season after scoring a winning brace against Brentford on Monday night.
Can Palace build on resurgence?
Glasner said he was aware of rumours that Nketiah suffered his injury whilst working with a private trainer away from the team.
But the Austrian brushed those aside, saying: “I heard about it and I talked to Eddie after the game, and he mentioned that he feels a little bit his hamstring, then we made a scan and we saw it’s a bit more serious than expected.
“I always trust my players, so why should I trust a strange source more than my player? So I talked to Eddie and it’s fine.”
Saturday’s contest will also mark Joachim Andersen’s first return to Selhurst Park since joining Fulham in the summer, the Dane in contrast part of a near fully-fit squad for Fulham boss Marco Silva.
Palace snapped an eight-game winless streak with victory against Tottenham late last month before beating Aston Villa in the Carabao Cup last-16 and drawing with Wolves last weekend, but still find themselves hovering just clear of the relegation zone.
Glasner added: “It’s about the team performance, so yes, I would like to have everybody available so I think especially in this phase of the year, and when I look forward to the schedule in December and January, I think it’s a challenge for every club.
“We still have players. We still have a squad of 20 outfield players, we have good youngsters from the academy.
“We will have a very competitive squad tomorrow and we go for the win.”

How the teams line up
More goals, please
Brentford’s last two Premier League home games have seen them beat Wolves 5-3 and Ipswich 4-3 – no team in English Football League history has won three consecutive home games while conceding 3+ goals each time.
Should Iraola have stuck with Travers over Kepa?
Sky Sports' Zinny Boswell at the Gtech Community Stadium:
"Bournemouth have been indebted to Mark Travers in their past two games against Man City and Aston Villa, but now Kepa has returned to fitness, the deputy has lost his place.
"His point-blank save in added time to deny Erling Haaland ensured Bournemouth claimed a huge victory over the champions Man City last week.
"The game before he won player of the match for his heroics in a 1-1 draw at Aston Villa. His fine work keeping Bournemouth in the game, before Evanilson nodded in a stoppage-time equaliser.
"Seems harsh to drop Travers after all that. All eyes on how Kepa performs on his return from injury."

Last time out for Brentford
Harry Wilson ensured that Fulham came away from the west London derby with the bragging rights on Monday Night Football. Re-live the game with our free highlights package.
Did you know?
Brentford have dropped a league-high 14 points from winning positions in the Premier League this season, losing 2-1 against Fulham last time out despite leading into second half stoppage time.
Indeed, the Bees have lost the most such points since their first ever Premier League campaign in 2021-22 (67).
Jones Knows with 'the bet of the weekend'
Brentford are a team that make my job easy. There is a simple formula to apply when it comes to analysing their matches - trust them at home, abandon them on the road.
And the same can be said for Bournemouth, making the case for a Brentford win an easy call to advise when assessing the 7/5 on offer with Sky Bet. It's bet of the weekend material.
The Bees have only lost one of their last 11 home Premier League games, winning four of the last five. Meanwhile, Bournemouth have just one away win from their last seven and have only scored more than once in one of their last 10 road games.
The Bees are a dogged and determined defensive outfit to break down when set up in their low block - and this is exactly the type of defence Andoni Iraola's side have problems against. The draw no bet option on Brentford at 4/5 with Sky Bet looks a cracker.
SCORE PREDICTION: 2-1 | JONES KNOWS' BEST BET: Brentford draw no bet (4/5 with Sky Bet)

Big day for Adams
Sky Sports' Zinny Boswell at the Gtech Community Stadium:
"It's a big day for Tyler Adams, he is starting his first club match since March. Injury has blighted most of his time at Bournemouth.
"The USA midfielder managed just three Premier League appearances last season because of hamstring and back issues.
"Those back problems have continued to hamper him this season, limiting him to two appearances off the bench, but he now starts for the first time this season.
"Adams will be looking to put those injury issues behind him and building up a bit of a run in this exciting Bournemouth team. He's endured such bad luck since signing from Leeds in the summer of 2023."
Is this how the teams shape up?
Opta have Brentford playing in a back three this afternoon. Let's see if that's how they shape up in an hour.
Jensen starts for Brentford
Mathias Jensen is the only change Thomas Frank has made to his Brentford side this afternoon, replacing Mads Roerslev.
Vitaly Janelt is likely to slot in at left-back as a result.
Adams makes first start of the season for Bournemouth
Tyler Adams makes his first start of the season for Bournemouth after a back injury kept him out for the beginning of the campaign.
Adams comes in for Marcus Tavernier, alongside Lewis Cook in midfield, which will likely see Ryan Christie pushed into a more advanced role.
Kepa Arrizabalaga returns in goal after an injury of his own, replacing Mark Travers who has to settle for a place on the bench.
Bournemouth team news
Team to face Brentford: Kepa, Smith, Senesi, Zabarnyi, Kerkez, Adams, Christie, Cook, Semenyo, Kluivert, Evanilson.
Subs: Travers, Huijsen, Brooks, Tavernier, Araujo, Hill, Enes Unal, Philip, Aarons.

Early Bournemouth team news
Bournemouth head coach Andoni Iraola is without wingers Luis Sinisterra and Dango Ouattara.
Goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga could return from injury, but Alex Scott remains out with a knee issue.
Early Brentford team news
Igor Thiago is stepping up his recovery from injury and is expected to participate in a behind-closed-doors friendly next week. Teenage summer-signing Gustavo Nunes is also set to feature in that game.
Defenders Kristoffer Ajer and Rico Henry will not be available for today's game against Bournemouth, while Aaron Hickey and Josh Dasilva are longer-term absentees.
Welcome!
Brentford are back in action at the Gtech and hoping to bounce back from derby day defeat to Fulham as they welcome Bournemouth to west London this afternoon.
Victory was just minutes away against Fulham, until Harry Wilson scored twice off the bench in stoppage-time to turn the game on its head.
Thomas Frank and his side will feel confident about their chances as they have the best home record in the Premier League so far this season, winning four and drawing one.
Bournemouth are fresh from big home wins over Arsenal and Man City, but their away form is a weakness. Plus, Brentford are the only side they have played and failed to beat in the Premier League.

Dominic Solanke scored twice as Tottenham roared back from a goal down to thrash top-four rivals Aston Villa 4-1 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Solanke had not scored since late September but struck twice in the space of four second-half minutes before substitute James Maddison added a brilliant fourth from a stoppage-time free-kick to end Villa's 11-game unbeaten run in all competitions.
Solanke's first goal was a deft finish over Emiliano Martinez after being played through by Dejan Kulusevski and he followed it up with a close-range strike from Richarlison's cross.
Earlier, in the first half, Morgan Rogers had put Villa ahead following poor Spurs defending at a corner, but Brennan Johnson levelled from a teasing Heung-Min Son centre soon after half-time.
As it happened: How the action unfolded
How the teams lined up | Match stats
Live Premier League table | Watch PL highlights for free
The hosts appeared to lose their momentum after their equaliser, and also suffered a blow when Cristian Romero limped off with an injury to join centre-back partner Micky van de Ven on the sidelines.
But the floodgates opened with Solanke's first goal, ensuring Spurs followed up their Carabao Cup win over Manchester City with another victory, having been beaten 1-0 away to Crystal Palace in their last Premier League game.
Aston Villa deserved their lead at half-time, with Amadou Onana also striking the post from a header, but Unai Emery's side were blown away in the second period, the defeat, only their second of the season, ensuring they missed the chance to go third.
Watch: All the goals
Ange hails 'massive effort' of Spurs players
Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou in his press conference:
"You know with Villa that they are always going to have a real strong performance because they are very, very consistent. They rarely have off days and you've got to be ready for that.
"I thought we had to match with them in the first half. We had to sort of draw on their energy and make them work really hard. Obviously we conceded a goal but I still felt like we made them work really hard in that first half.
"The thing with us is we've got another two or three gears in us and we keep going. We felt like we could really break them open in the second half if we just really stayed focused on making sure the football was up-tempo and there was intensity in the game.
"Credit to the players after a massive effort on Wednesday night [the 2-1 win over Manchester City in the Carabao Cup] that physically they did it again."
Postecoglou also said Romero's withdrawal was down to soreness in his foot, while Richarlison, who also had to be taken off, felt something in his hamstring.
Analysis: Hard-working Solanke gets his rewards
After 473 minutes without a goal, a barren run dating back to the end of September, Solanke only needed four minutes to turn one into two. His quick-fire double was crucial to the victory.
His first was beautifully-taken as he latched onto Kulusevski's pass to lift a delicate finish over Martinez. For his second, he was in the right place at the right time following a turnover to meet Richarlison's low cross with a powerful strike from close range.
The goals delighted Postecoglou, but the Spurs boss has consistently talked up the importance of his all-round contribution to the side and that was his message again in his press conference.
"Just unbelievable," he said of Solanke's work-rate, this display coming only a few days after a similarly industrious performance in the Carabao Cup win over Manchester City in midweek.
His effort was evident throughout as he hounded and harried Villa defenders and it was reflected in Premier League tracking data which showed he made 36 high-intensity sprints - the second-highest total by any player in a Premier League game all season.
"I'm sure he loves the fact that he can score a couple of goals," added Postecoglou. "But even if he didn't, I can't speak highly enough of what he's contributing to our team. Long may it continue because with him playing that way, he just makes us a better team."
Emery 'not too worried' despite defeat
Aston Villa boss Unai Emery in his press conference:
"We have been consistent until today, but we will need more. It's not enough, but we are still being in the top-seven positions and this is the first objective we can try to keep.
"Yes, of course, in the first half we didn't concede a lot of chances, we didn't concede a lot of opportunities.
"But in the second half, they took a step forward, clearly, and they scored with their first action. After that it was more difficult, but even like that, we were competing and we created chances.
"But we made some mistakes in transitions and they were alert to try to use them and they did it.
"I am not really worried about the result because it could happen, with how the match was going. They scored two goals and after they were in their best position to play how they like, in transitions."
