# Wolves: Fans want Patrick Cutrone to start against Slovan Bratislava

**Ahead of tonight’s Europa League clash between Wolves and Slovan Bratislava at Molineux, Express & Star journalist Joe Edwards shared his expected Wolves line-up on Twitter \[[via @JoeEdwards\_Star](https://twitter.com/JoeEdwards_Star/status/1192138018821484546)\].**

> Wolves to go like this tomorrow v Slovan Bratislava?
>
> Thinking with Jota suspended, bring Neto in, while Neves and Dendoncker are given a bit of a rest for Sunday.
>
> Wouldn't want to change too much personally as it's an important game, and Slovan are solid. [#wwfc](https://twitter.com/hashtag/wwfc?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) [pic.twitter.com/rULP4JV40D](https://t.co/rULP4JV40D)

If that is the team which is selected by Nuno Espirito Santo, there will be three changes in personnel from the [starting XI against Arsenal](https://www.whoscored.com/Matches/1375980/Live/England-Premier-League-2019-2020-Arsenal-Wolverhampton-Wanderers) last weekend.

Pedro Neto would replace the [suspended Diogo Jota](https://www.eveningexpress.co.uk/sport/diogo-jota-misses-wolves-clash-with-slovan-bratislava-through-suspension/) in attack, while Max Kilman and Ryan Bennett would come into the defence, with Romain Saiss reverting to midfield while Ruben Neves and Leander Dendoncker drop out.

There is no place in Edwards’ anticipated line-up, though, for striker Patrick Cutrone, who [scored in the recent Carabao Cup defeat against Aston Villa](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/patrick-cutrone/leistungsdaten/spieler/265078) but was [substituted at half-time](https://www.whoscored.com/Matches/1427177/Live/Europe-UEFA-Europa-League-2019-2020-Slovan-Bratislava-Wolverhampton-Wanderers) in Wolves’ win over Slovan Bratislava two weeks ago.

The 21-year-old Italian has been [in and out of Nuno’s starting XI](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/patrick-cutrone/leistungsdaten/spieler/265078) this season, with [two Europa League starts either side of a substitute appearance against Besiktas](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/329681/MatchStatistics/Patrick-Cutrone) indicative of his campaign so far.

These Wolves fans on Twitter have called for Cutrone to be included from the start against Slovan Bratislava tonight, with some asking for Raul Jimenez to be rested:

> Is Bennett 100%? don’t want to suffer another set back. Saiss/Donk in defense, Neves in midfield. Cutrone from the start.
