Player to watch – Andre
Wolves stole a march on some of their rivals when they signed Andre from Fluminense last summer and the midfielder’s combative qualities have made him a force in the Premier League since.
Bristly Andre can set the tempo
Andre is a workhorse in midfield and has been averaging 2.50 tackles and 1.20 fouls per game in the Premier League for Wanderers. The 23-year-old has been booked in three of his last four starts and he could be a card-market candidate on Saturday.
