Wolverhampton Wanderers host their Midlands rivals Leicester City on Sunday afternoon as they look to strengthen their grip on European qualification with Bruno Lage's side sat in seventh, two points off of the top six.

Wolves have been excellent this campaign and go into their meeting with the Foxes fresh from an impressive 2-0 win away at Tottenham Hotspur last weekend.

The clash saw forwards Raul Jimenez and Daniel Podence start up front as a pair for the visitors, with the former scoring the opening goal. However, the latter is yet to score in the Premier League this campaign.

With fellow forward Hee-Chan Hwang now fit, who replaced the Portuguese in north London, it may now be time for the South Korean to be reintegrated into the starting lineup.

On the chalkboard

Prior to his injury, the 26-year-old had made an impressive start to his Wolves tenure, scoring four Premier League goals in his first six appearances for the club after initially joined on loan from Bundesliga outfit RB Leipzig before making the move permanent in January.

However, the £11.7m-rated forward failed to score in the eight league games prior to suffering the hamstring injury that kept him out for a month.

Having made the bench against Arsenal and a nine-minute cameo against Tottenham, Hwang is certainly back in contention and, with Jimenez currently the only Wolves forward scoring goals, it could be worth Lage handing the 26-year-old his first start in over two months.

None of Fabio Silva, Daniel Podence or Francisco Trincao have scored in the Premier League yet this season for the West Midlands outfit, particularly highlighting how impressive Hwang's start to life in the English top-flight was.

Bruno Lage's side are still one of the league's lowest scorers with 21 goals in 23 matches, a record better than just two sides in Norwich City and Burnley with both sat in the bottom three. Therefore, an alternative in the offensive department would surely do no harm.

Podence could still be implemented into the starting lineup as a right-winger, with Hwang playing the majority of his matches as a left-winger, therefore allowing Lage to regularly use a 3-4-3 formation once again with Jimenez the striker.

With Leicester City next up for Wolves, it's vital that the Golden Boys maintain pressure on the top six, especially given the fact that sixth-placed Arsenal, whom Wolves face after the Foxes, have a game in hand on Lage's side.

The Molineux outfit's defence has been seriously impressive this campaign, with 17 goals conceded in 23 matches. Now, they need to find a way to add more goals if they are to secure European football for next campaign; the reintegration of Hwang will certainly give them a strong chance of doing so.
