Wolverhampton Wanderers are set to play host to their Premier League rivals, Everton, in the third round of the EFL Cup at Molineux Stadium on Tuesday.
The Wolves are pinned to the bottom of the Premier League table after five game weeks, as they are yet to bag even a single point. Vitor Pereira's side have only managed to score thrice so far in the league, and their horrific defending has seen them concede 12 goals, the second-worst record after West Ham (13). They thumped West Ham in Round Two of the EFL Cup last month after Jorgen Strand Larsen's 82nd and 84th-minute strikes helped them mount a late 3-2 win at home.
They are facing an uphill battle against David Moyes' Everton, who do not boast the best record in the Premier League this season, with just two wins and one draw, but have shown some semblance of form. Their tight Merseyside derby loss to Liverpool means they are currently on a two-game winless streak. However, what is to be noted is that the Toffees' last win came against Wolves in a 3-2 showing at Molineux. They opened their EFL Cup account last month with a dominant Round Two win over League One side Mansfield Town.
