Wolvesvs.Everton

The Brazilian attacker lost his head during the dying embers of extra time in Wolves' FA Cup fifth-round loss to Bournemouth, lashing out at and moving his head towards Milos Kerkez before receiving an obvious red card.

Cunha will now begin a three-game domestic ban for violent conduct, and his punishment could yet become more severe after the FA charged him with acting in an improper manner.

With the former Atletico Madrid man watching on helplessly, either Marshall Munetsi or Hwang Hee-chan should be called upon to join Jorgen Strand Larsen and Pablo Sarabia in the final third.

Given the fact that Hwang has only just come back from injury, Munetsi should get the nod, especially as Goncalo Guedes is still uncertain for the contest due to a knee problem.

Pereira should otherwise be working with an identical group of players and should recall Andre to the midfield in place of Jean-Ricner Bellegarde, while Nelson Semedo, Rayan Ait-Nouri and Joao Gomes will continue in the bank of four.

Matt Doherty may have been guilty of one of the fatal penalty misses in the FA Cup fifth round, but the Irishman should still return to the backline in place of the inexperienced Nasser Djiga.

Rodrigo Gomes (groin) is another doubt for this fixture, while Sasa Kalajdzic (knee), Yerson Mosquera (knee), Enso Gonzalez (knee), Leon Chiwone (knee) and Emmanuel Agbadou (thigh) are still absent.

Wolverhampton Wanderers possible starting lineup:

Sa; Doherty, Bueno, Toti; Semedo, Gomes, Andre, Ait-Nouri; Sarabia, Munetsi; Larsen
