3. Ruben Neves inspires Wolves to win over Leicester

In the opening round of fixtures, Wolves were the only one of the promoted sides to pick up any points as they played out an entertaining 2-2 with Everton at Molineux. This week last season’s Championship winners travel to the King Power Stadium to face Leicester.

Leicester were a little bit unlucky in their opening week loss to Manchester United. The Foxes conceded a stupid early penalty but dominated large periods of the game and created some good chances.

Jamie Vardy will almost certainly start this week after he only made a substitute appearance at Old Trafford.

This should be an entertaining match and we expect Wolves to take a lot of courage from their opening day performance which was inspired by Portuguese sensation, Ruben Neves. The playmaker was sensational against Everton scoring and creating a goal.

Expect more of that this weekend in Leicester as he helps his side to their first three points on their return to England’s top flight. Goals should be a feature of this match and Wolves are just going to notch this game by one as they run out 3-2 winners on their first away day of the season.
