Rob Edwards needs a win. The Wolves manager has done a lot to revive the unity which had been lost at Molineux earlier in the season, but that is in danger of disappearing during an end-of-season drop-off.

Victories against Aston Villa and Liverpool, and a battling point after being 2-0 down against Arsenal, raised expectations and showed there was still fight in this Wolves team.

They were going down swinging two months ago - and also fought back from 2-0 behind to claim a point at Brentford - but three straight defeats without scoring to West Ham, Leeds and Tottenham had seen optimism evaporate.

A poor draw against a Sunderland side playing for more than an hour with 10 men did Edwards no favours.
