One's to Watch.

Kenny Miller is expected to make his first start of the season and will be out to impress. Last seasons leading scorer played the second half of last Saturdays game against Bolton after being out since the summer through injury.

Nicolas Anelka already has 6 goals to his name this season and he will be keen to add to his tally for Keegans men.

The Verdict

Wolves go in search of their first Premiership win of the season against Manchester City tomorrow on the back of a good performance against Bolton at the Reebok a week ago.

The team Jones picks will be interesting and whilst we hope to bring you our useful "Late Team News" tonight, Jones is as of yet is unsure which formation to go with.

Wolves have been lacking goals and with injuries to all but one of our strikers, Jones has been forced to play with just one striker.

However, Jones now has four fully fit Strikers to chose from and he may opt to go back to the traditional 4-4-3 which saw Wolves score more than 100 goals in all competitions last season.

" There were teams in the First Division who, with all due respect, we could beat with our eyes closed and without necessarily playing well for 90 minutes, But now the boot is on the other foot" Jones told the E&S, but how he is right, just ask Lee Naylor.

As per usual with Jones he will try and keep his exact formation under-wraps until kick off tomorrow.

Look out for the wolvesfc.co.uk Late Team News feature will appear here tonight.
