REF’s picks

Wolverhampton Wanderers hold the upper hand at Molineux against a Cardiff side that struggles defensively on their travels. The return of creative sparks like Fer Lopez and Mateus Mane should give the hosts the cutting edge needed to break down the Bluebirds.

1. 1Wolves boast strong individual quality and home advantage despite missing a few squad players.
2. 2Cardiff's recent away form includes defensive frailties, such as conceding twice at Middlesbrough.
3. 3Wolves have occasionally stumbled as heavy favourites, showing vulnerabilities against well-organized mid-table blocks.
