Kick off time 14:00 (BST).

2 weeks away so plenty of time before this.

Might be a break we need to figure stuff out. Wolves have had a poor start to the season albeit they've probably had the hardest start in terms of fixtures.

Yep, they haven't had the easiest start to the season ..... lost six of the seven league games they've played so far, and shipped 21 goals at the back already ..... they are desperate for a win, against anybody!

They ARE creating chances in games though, and sooner or later they WILL get that win ...... we will need to show an improvement at the back, get control in midfield, and hopefully wear them down .... oh, and avoid conceding any more needless goals!

Exactly, it's not as guaranteed as it looks on paper. They've had:
Arsenal (A)
Chelsea (H)
Forest (A)
Newcastle (H)
Villa (A)
Liverpool (H)
Brentford (A)

For us that would be 4 tricky away games and 3 bigger sides at home, I certainly don't think we would be sat in 2nd on 17 points.

That’s 8 very tricky games including us
 
We should win this but a lot depends on how the lads get through the international break, and if Kev and Nathan are fit by then. We definitely need extra cover in defence and Nathan is reliable, not saying he starts every game but he is an asset we have missed for most of this season so far.
 
If we win this 20 points from 24 is a good solid start despite the concerns.

On the other hand, they've lost 6 of their 7 games, so we should be going there and putting them under some serious pressure early on, as their confidence must be fairly low.

If we start slow and sluggish, and allow them to get a foothold, the crowd there will make it a real tough test.

Get at them early, and a couple of goals up after 20 minutes should see them off.

Yeah an early battering with goals and the crowd will go toxic.
 
I’m going to be in Miami for this game, does anyone know if there is a branch or bar to watch this with our American blues?
