Wolves have had a trialling week with the news involving Matheus Cunha but finally, Vitor Pereira has had some brilliant news to report.
On Saturday, Matheus Cunha was shown a straight red card for lashing out at Milos Kerkez. The Brazilian has since been handed a punishment, with Cunha set to miss a minimum of three matches.
Vitor Pereira losing his top scorer with fixtures against Everton, Southampton, West Ham and Ipswich Town on the horizon was a massive blow.
But while Pereira will be without Cunha for those pivotal matches, the Portuguese boss is set to welcome back multiple Wolves stars.

Wolves trio to return against Everton
Ahead of Wolves showdown against Everton, he was able to reveal that Goncalo Guedes, Emmanuel Agbadou and Rodrigo Gomes are all available alongside Jean-Ricner Bellegarde and Marshall Munetsi, who picked up knocks at Bournemouth.
Team news: "Agbadou is ready to help us. Munetsi is ready, Guedes is ready, Rodrigo is ready, Bellegarde too. I'm very happy and positive for this game." #wwfc

Agbadou picked up his injury against Liverpool but returned to training this week and will be a huge boost to the Wolves’ defence.
Gomes was pictured at Compton following five matches on the sidelines with an injured pelvis, and the 21-year-old will offer an excellent option in attack.
Finally, Guedes has been missing for the last three games after undergoing a scan on his respected problem, though his return is timely given the absence of Cunha.

All three of the returning stars, alongside Bellegarde and Munetsi, will be massive in their quest to beat Everton and get revenge on their 4-0 defeat in December.
Pereira on Wolves survival chances
Pereira was downbeat after Wolves lost to Bournemouth on penalties, denying them a place in the FA Cup quarter-finals.
But during his press conference on Friday, there was a gust of optimism coming from the manager, who is increasingly confident the Old Gold will survive.
"I'm very positive (of staying up). We have the quality, of course. I'm sure of it." #wwfc

The Wolves boss has every right to feel positive about their chances, as Leicester have lost 11 of their last 12 while Ipswich Town are winless in eight matches.
Although Paul Merson predicts Wolves to be relegated after Cunha’s suspension, the Wanderers can increase their five point buffer on the bottom three by beating Everton this weekend.
