Wolves enter the second leg of their Europa League round of 32 matchup against Espanyol with a significant advantage following a dominant first-leg performance.
The West Midlands side secured a 4-0 victory at Molineux, meaning they must avoid losing by four goals to progress in the competition.
Diogo Jota played a pivotal role in the first-leg rout, scoring a hat-trick. If he or a teammate manages to find the net on Catalan turf, Espanyol would then need to score six goals to win the tie.
Despite the comfortable lead, Wolves manager Nuno Espirito Santo is expected to urge caution to prevent a potential upset.
A primary concern for Wolves is the potential return of Espanyol striker Raul De Tomas. De Tomas had scored in four consecutive games before an injury forced him to miss the first leg of the tie.
It’s not yet confirmed if De Tomas will be risked in this match, as his return may be premature, but his presence represents a threat to the Wolves defense.
The match is scheduled to kick off at 5:55pm on February 27, 2020.

Match Outlook
Analysis from RadioTimes.com suggests that the Premier League side must be wary of complacency, noting that it’s still only half-time in the tie.
While Wolves should ideally seek to score and further distance themselves from their opponents, the objective is to remain firm and avoid a monumental upset.
The prediction for the second-leg encounter is a 1-1 draw.
