Wolverhampton Wanderers boss Vitor Pereira expects to have number one goalkeeper Jose Sa available for Saturday's Premier League battle with Leicester City at Molineux.
The Portuguese was due to start at Old Trafford against Manchester United last weekend, only to suffer a back injury in the warm-up, which forced him to pull out of the XI at the last minute.
As Sam Johnstone was also out of contention with an unspecified injury, third-choice Daniel Bentley earned his stars in between the sticks, managing to keep a clean sheet in that 1-0 triumph.
However, Sa is now expected to make his return and should be fine to guard the posts here, most likely with an identical backline comprising Emmanuel Agbadou, Toti Gomes and Santiago Bueno.
Nelson Semedo and the in-demand Rayan Ait-Nouri are shoo-ins out wide, as are Andre and Joao Gomes in the middle, although Tommy Doyle and Boubacar Traore can expect more opportunities now that Wolves' survival has been rubber-stamped.
Pablo Sarabia's astounding free kick made the difference at the Theatre of Dreams, but the Spaniard is still unlikely to force his way back in over the impactful Marshall Munetsi or record-chasing Matheus Cunha.
The Brazilian is on 14 goals for the Premier League season and needs four more to break Raul Jimenez's club record for a single campaign in the competition; the Mexico international struck 17 in 2019-20.
Wolverhampton Wanderers possible starting lineup:
Sa; Agbadou, Toti, Bueno; Semedo, Andre, Gomes, Ait-Nouri; Munetsi, Cunha; Larsen
