15' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Matheus Cunha suffering a number of foals already.
20' Nelson Semedo has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 12 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
25' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Jed Wallace made 382 appearances and scored 49 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.

64' Wolverhampton Wanderers FC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
