The West Midlands outfit aren't in the best of form, but their performances suggest that an upturn in results is coming, whereas Huddersfield have still won just once all season. With injury news ushering in a Wolves re-shuffle, the Terriers could be looking to upset the odds at Molineux.
Our captain has been discussing his development since joining us from Sunday's opponents, and the effect Nuno has had on his career.

Prediction
Despite the form of both sides going into this clash, Wolves should have too much for Huddersfield. The side from the Black Country are one of the best defensive outfits in the Premier League and Huddersfield have serious goal scoring problems.
🗣️Wagner: "Psychologically every win brings you forwards, big steps forwards, and if we can do it two times out of three, it would be great.
