Wolves can stake their claim for a European place with a victory against an out-of-form Newcastle on Friday night.
Bruno Lage’s side currently sit eighth in the Premier League table following a sensational season under the Portuguese coach.
But it could yet get even better for Wanderers if they can finish the campaign strongly. A win at St James’ Park would take them up to sixth place in the table.
Their fans can smell Europa League football for the first time since Nuno Espirito Santo guided them there with a seventh place finish in the 2018/19 season.
