AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction

A general view of Vitality Stadium - (Getty Images)

Follow live coverage as AFC Bournemouth face Wolverhampton Wanderers today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Liverpool look to fend off competition from Arsenal, Manchester City and more.

The race for the Champions League places should also be a compelling battle, with a fifth place possible for English teams. Manchester United’s latest rebuild under Ruben Amorim sets expectations high once more after a dismal season last time out.

Meanwhile, it’s Burnley, Leeds United and Sunderland who made it back to the elite after promotion last year and each will have hope they can make it more than a one-year stay. Follow the latest live action from the Premier League below:

AFC Bournemouth 1 - 0 Wolverhampton Wanderers FC

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

17:09

The full-time whistle goes at the Vitality Stadium as Bournemouth hang on against the 10 men of Wolves, sealing a 1-0 win and their first points of the new Premier League season! Tavernier's deflected strike in just the fourth minute of the game proved decisiv, as Andoni Iraola's side survived a late wave of Wolves attacks despite producing 1.57 xG to the visitors' 0.40. Wolves went close to an equaliser through Arias within 60 seconds of the restart, but any momentum was shattered when Toti Gomes was shown a straight red card for a last-man challenge on Evanilson just three minutes later. This led to Tavernier, Semenyo Adams, Kluivert all having chances to extend Bournemouth's lead, but they either fired high, wide or were denied by Sa as Wolves produced late efforts of their own through Agbadou and Hugo Bueno. The visitors couldn't find an equaliser though and remain in the bottom three with two defeats from their two matches, with Bournemouth climbing up to ninth after their first victory of the new campaign.

FULL-TIME: BOURNEMOUTH 1-0 WOLVES.

OVER!!! Sa comes up for Wolves' late, late corner which is headed half-clear by Bournemouth, and Hugo Bueno meets the loose ball on the end of the box with a volley which he sends sailing over the bar!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

17:00

Wolves break down the left-hand side after both Kroupi and Christie are prevented from shooting by last-ditch blocks at the other end, and Hwang's cross from the flank is steered behind for a corner by Senesi as he's clattered by Munetsi!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

17:00

A yellow card is shown in the direction of Wolves' bench amid protests from Vitor Pereira's coaching staff, one of whom is booked by the referee.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:59

Bournemouth have won just three of their last 14 Premier League matches, including losing three of their last four. The Cherries haven’t lost their opening two league games of a season since 2017-18, and are well on track for three points here.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:59

Agbadou plays a one-two with Doherty to get out of trouble at the back and fires a low ball forward for Hwang, but he's a mile offside as he runs in behind and Bournemouth will be in no rush to take this free-kick.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:55

Bournemouth aren't home and hosed yet as the fourth official declares SIX minutes of added time, giving Wolves the chance of a late lifeline as they look to get something out of this game.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:50

Adams also comes off late for the Cherries as defender James Hill replaces him, with Bournemouth happy to take a defence-first approach and see out a 1-0 victory.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:54

Andoni Iraola makes another pair of Bournemouth changes as Evanilson comes off, with another new signing in Eli Kroupi brought on to replace the Brazilian.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:49

BLOCKED!!! Kluivert and Adli stand over the Bournemouth free-kick but it's the Dutchman who takes it, sending a curling effort into the wall which is deflected over and behind for a corner!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:49

Semenyo cuts inside from the left to shoot and his right-footed effort is blocked by Agbadou into the path of Smith. He and Joao Gomes both lunge for the ball but the Bournemouth skipper gets there first, with Gomes coming off second best in the challenge and being shown a yellow card for his troubles!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:49

Doherty loses out to Adli on halfway and ends up on the deck, before dragging the Bournemouth substitute back by his shirt to become the latest player on the receiving end of a yellow card.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:49

Kluivert scored a hat-trick of penalties for Bournemouth in their 4-2 win over Wolves last season, with 25% of the 20 goals previously scored in Premier League games between these two teams coming from the spot – the highest ratio of any fixture with 15 or more goals.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:47

WIDE!!! Kluivert is played into shooting space and fires goalwards from 25 yards with one of his first touches. It's an awkward effort which bobbles before reaching Sa, but the Wolves goalkeeper is spared as the ball bounces wide of his near post!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:43

Hwang Hee-Chan also enters the fray in Wolves' final change of the match, replacing Strand Larsen up front for the latter stages as the depleted visitors look for an equaliser.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:42

Bournemouth make their next change as Tavernier is withdrawn having scored the goal which separates these two sides, and another player returning from injury replaces him in the form of Justin Kluivert.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:41

Tchatchoua is released down the right-hand side again and crosses first-time into the box with Strand Larsen arriving, but Diakite does just enough to block the striker off and Adli recovers possession for Bournemouth.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:41

Christie pops up on the edge of Wolves' box and plays a one-two with Adli before letting fly, but he takes too long to pull the trigger and Santiago Bueno's block sends the ball looping up into Sa's gloves.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:39

Tavernier's cross from the right is plucked out of the air by Sa and he quickly launches the ball forward for Strand Larsen. Christie gets back in cover for Bournemouth and is forced back by the Wolves striker, only to be fouled and win the hosts a free-kick deep in their own half.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:36

Munetsi tees up Tchatchoua to cross from the right-hand side, but his effort is too close to Petrovic and the Bournemouth keeper claims it ahead of Strand Larsen.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:33

SAVED!!! Adli does superbly to streak away from Hugo Bueno down the right and cuts the ball back to Evanilson. He tees Adams up for a first-time strike, and the American's curling effort is bound for the top corner before it's tipped over the bar by Sa!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:35

Semenyo has netted a brace in each of his last two Premier League appearances, having only scored more than once in one of his first 80 matches. He’s the second Ghanaian to achieve this feat, along with Leeds' Tony Yeboah in 1995, while the only African player to score at least twice in three straight appearances in a row is Papiss Cisse in April 2012 for Newcastle.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:33

SAVED!!! Christie's cross-field ball into the box is met on the volley by Semenyo at the far post, but his left-footed strike from an acute angle is saved and held by Sa!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:33

Amine Adli also comes on to make his Bournemouth debut just days after a £25million move from Bayer Leverkusen, and he'll replace Brooks out wide for the last 25 minutes or so.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:33

Scott is substituted in the wake of that reckless yellow card, with the returning Ryan Christie on to replace him in midfield.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:33

BLOCKED!! It's Agbadou who steps up to strike the free-kick for Wolves, but his shot from 20 yards is fired into a crowded Bournemouth box and Adams clears after making the block!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:33

Hugo Bueno ran straight up to the referee to protest his namesake's case and demand a red card for Scott, only to be shown a yellow himself for dissent as a result.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:31

Scott comes in high and late on Santiago Bueno to catch the Wolves substitute with a knee into the abdomen right on the edge of the box, and the away end are understandably unhappy when the referee only shows the Bournemouth midfielder a yellow card.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:30

Wolves have won just one of their last 22 Premier League matches in August, a 1-0 away win against Everton in 2023. Their overall August win ratio in the competition is just 14% with five wins in 35 games, the lowest of any side to play 30+ games in this month.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:28

CHANCE!!! Tchatchoua bursts clear of his marker down the right and fires a cross in for Munetsi, but he's shrugged off the ball by Diakite and can't get a shot away before Smith cleans things up for Bournemouth!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:28

A mix-up in communications between Agbadou and Sa results in the Wolves goalkeeper coming well out of his box to collect a loose ball meant for the centre-back, who collides with Sa before luckily regaining his composure to turn away from Evanilson and come away with the ball!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:21

Adams and Joao Gomes get into a grappling battle on the halfway line and the Bournemouth man is penalised, with the referee showing Adams a yellow card after he drags the Wolves midfielder to ground.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:28

OVER!!! Another pinpoint Brooks cross is touched on by Evanilson in the box with Semenyo arriving to his left, but the bounce of the ball does the Cherries winger no favours and he blasts his effort over the crossbar again!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:18

Arias has been bright on his full Wolves debut, but he's withdrawn for another defender to come on, with Santiago Bueno set to make up for Toti Gomes' absence in defence.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:20

Wolves are lucky to avoid yet another card being raised after Tavernier is left in a heap by Andre in a wild 50-50 challenge which goes unpunished, as Vitor Pereira prepares another change to plug the gap left by Toti Gomes at the back.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:20

Wolves have never lost in five Premier League away games against Bournemouth, making the Cherries the side they’ve faced most often on the road without defeat in the competition, but with a one-goal deficit and their captain sent off, extending that record now looks unlikely for Vitor Pereira's side.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:15

SAVED!!! Toti Gomes eventually leaves the field after protesting his innocence to the referee in vain, and Bournemouth's routine free-kick sees Tavernier blast a low shot under the wall and straight into the gloves of Sa!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:15

RED CARD!!!! Wolves' captain Toti Gomes is OFF! Brooks' ball in behind for Evanilson is touched on by the Brazilian before a challenge from Toti Gomes, who gives the striker just enough of a nudge to send him to ground. The referee blows for a free-kick rather than a penalty, but Wolves don't get much of a reprieve as their skipper is shown a straight red card!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:13

CHANCE!!! Evanilson chests a cross into the path of Semenyo and he strikes goalwards on the half-volley, only for Sa to meet his first-time shot with a good save before the offside flag goes up!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:13

Brooks hits the deck in the box under pressure from Agbadou as he looks to get on the end of Tavernier's cross, but the referee's happy with the challenge and waves play on!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:11

WIDE!!! Almost an instant impact from the visitors!! Bueno fires in a cross from the left after his first is dealt with by Bournemouth, and the second is met by Arias with a first-time shot which flashes just inches wide of the near post!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:08

Bournemouth's chances of victory have increased even further in our live win probability tracker after their strong start to this game, with a 74.7% likelihood that they press home that 1-0 advantage in the second half. Wolves are now given just a 7.1% chance of turning things around at the Vitality Stadium, as Munetsi gets the game back underway.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:07

Hugo Bueno also comes on at the break for the visitors, replacing Moller Wolfe at left wing-back.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:06

Vitor Pereira makes a further two changes at half-time after Hoever's enforced exit in the opening 45 minutes, with Bellegarde replaced in Wolves' midfield by the Brazilian Andre.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

16:01

Semenyo was at his devastating best in the first half, setting up Tavernier's opener with the first of two big chances created and also going within inches of doubling Bournemouth's lead with that close-range shot off the crossbar. The winger has had seven touches in the box and completed six final-third passes, with possession won twice in the same area of the pitch and 0.75 in the xG column already.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:58

The first half ends with the hosts in the ascendancy, with Bournemouth taking a 1-0 lead over Wolves into half-time at the Vitality Stadium. The Cherries started brightly and had racked up most of their 1.10 xG inside the first 10 minutes, as Brooks volleyed a good cross from Truffert over the bar before Tavernier gave Bournemouth the lead inside four minutes. His strike took a big deflection off Agbadou to bounce off the crossbar and into the back of the net, but Semenyo didn't get so lucky just minutes later as his close-range effort from Brooks' cross cannoned back off the woodwork. Wolves did grow into the game but their chances were limited, with just 0.14 xG generated and Petrovic tipping Strand Larsen's header around the post. It's advantage Bournemouth at the break, but Wolves will know they've got what it takes to get themselves back on level terms at the very least in the second half.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:54

HALF-TIME: BOURNEMOUTH 1-0 WOLVES.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:53

Evanilson plays Brooks into the area and he tries a low, right-footed shot through the crowd, which deflects behind to give Bournemouth a late corner in this first half.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:52

OVER!! Semenyo's cross from the left is blocked and the Ghanaian then picks out Scott on the edge of the box, but his strike goalwards is rushed and sails over the bar!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:49

We're into the first of five additional minutes on the end of a first half which has been very stop-start due to fouls and injuries.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:49

A clearing header from Truffert at the far post is met on the volley by Bellegarde, but his shot is scuffed into the ground and Bournemouth easily deal with it.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:49

Scott swings in a Bournemouth corner from the left which Sa climbs, swings for and misses, but Semenyo can't connect with it at the back post either and he clatters into Adams on the goal-line.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:46

Evanilson and Brooks link up from a Bournemouth long ball and the latter squares for Tavernier on the edge of the box, but Arias' presence and a poor touch from the goalscorer brings the chance to a swift end!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:45

Bournemouth may have flown out of the traps in this game and had still maintained 84.2% possession at the half-hour mark, but their last shot on goal after Tavernier's opener came back in the tenth minute.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:42

Superb hold-up play from Strand Larsen allows him to release Bellegarde and then Tchatchoua down the right, but the debutant's first-time cross is headed away by Diakite and Doherty's ball back in from the touchline is knocked clear by Petrovic.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:40

CHANCE!!! Truffert leaves Tchatchoua on the deck as he cuts inside from the left before finding Semenyo in the box, but he can't find any shooting space and picks out Scott. He hits the deck under pressure from Arias, but the referee waves away any penalty appeals!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:38

Hoever's unfortunate withdrawal means an earlier-than-expected debut for new Wolves signing Jackson Tchatchoua, who comes on at right wing-back for the visitors.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:38

Another stoppage in play occurs with Hoever on his haunches on the right-hand touchline and unable to continue, with the Dutchman slowly making his way off after aggravating that earlier knee injury.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:38

Scott is fouled again by Joao Gomes and his fall causes a collision with Moller Wolfe, who hits the deck but is thankfully able to continue straight away as Smith launches the Bournemouth free-kick forwards.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:38

Munetsi is back on his feet and trudges off the pitch for further inspection, as Bournemouth re-start proceedings with that free-kick for his foul on Adams.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:35

The game is paused again with both Adams and Munetsi down following a challenge from behind by the Wolves midfielder, who came off worse in that challenge and is still laid on the turf with a concussion check ongoing.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:33

A poor Agbadou pass allows Bournemouth to take a quick throw in Truffert's direction, but the Wolves defender recovers to head the ball behind for a corner which is punched clear by Sa on his line!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:26

Play is halted with Hoever down clutching his knee following a collision with Semenyo, with Bournemouth's players jeered by the away end after continuing play before they eventually put the ball out.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:24

The hosts look to break again as Adams links up with Scott in midfield, but he's felled by his opposite number Joao Gomes to win a free-kick in a good crossing position for Bournemouth.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:24

Bournemouth lost their first Premier League home game in each of their first three seasons in the competition between 2015-16 and 2017-18, but haven’t lost their first home match in any of their last five top-flight seasons.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:20

SAVED!!! That's a superb stop!!! Wolves break and Hoever is played into space down the right, before floating a good cross into the box. It's met by a glancing header from Strand Larsen, but Petrovic is equal to it and parries the ball behind for a corner!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:19

Brooks looks to slip Tavernier in behind Wolves' defence and the opening goalscorer meets his pass in the box, but he's dispossessed by a firm but fair sliding challenge from Doherty before the offside flag goes up.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:18

CHANCE!! A loose Diakite touch allows Moller Wolfe to burst in behind by the Bournemouth defence, but he's forced wide by Adams in cover and the Wolves wing-back's eventual cross is swallowed up by Petrovic!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:16

Bournemouth have won three of their last five Premier League games against Wolves and couldn't have made a better start to this match, although all three of their previous victories have come at Molineux.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:15

BLOCKED!!! Brooks strides through midfield and finds himself in shooting space, but that space is quickly closed by Doherty and he makes a vital block to keep Bournemouth's number seven at bay!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:15

OFF THE BAR!!! An inch-perfect cross from Brooks is met by Semenyo arriving at the far post and he shoots from point-blank range, but the ball bounces right in front of the Cherries winger and his strike cannons back off the crossbar!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:11

Brilliant feet from Semenyo release Truffert down the left, and his hanging cross into the area is headed behind for a Bournemouth corner by Toti Gomes.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:10

Bournemouth look to break and a smart Evanilson touch takes him past Toti Gomes, but the Brazilian is dragged back by the Wolves captain and he's shown a yellow card for that shirt pull.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:10

Strand Larsen takes on Diakite in the box and slides in to block the Bournemouth defender's clearance, and the crowd aren't happy when the ball goes behind and the referee signals for a Wolves corner!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:09

Tavernier's goal on exactly four minutes is the quickest we've seen so far in the new Premier League season.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:09

Semenyo could have gone for goal himself there, but slipped in Tavernier to his left and the deflection on his shot paid dividends for Bournemouth!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:08

GOOOOOOOOAAAAAAALLLLLL!!!! Bournemouth break the deadlock inside four minutes!! Evanilson loses possession on the edge of the box but Adams is straight onto the offensive and flies into Bellegarde to win it back. The ball falls for Semenyo and he plays in Tavernier, whose left-footed effort takes a big deflection off Agbadou to wrong-foot Sa, and bounces in off the crossbar to give the hosts a 1-0 lead!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:05

OVER!!! Wolves go close themselves at the other end! Sa's long punt forward bounces through the middle of Bournemouth's defence and bounces kindly for Munetsi, but the Zimbabwean snatches at his shot and also sends a half-volley over the top!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:03

OVER!!! A first-time cross from the left by Truffert finds its way through to Brooks arriving at the far post, but the Welshman can't keep his own first-time effort down and blazes over the bar!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:01

Scott kicks the game off for Bournemouth, and we are up and running on the south coast!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

15:01

Bournemouth are the heavy favourites to pick up their first win of the season in this game according to our live win probability tracker, which is hardly surprising given their performances last season and strong showing against Liverpool. The Cherries have a 51.4% chance of victory to Wolves’ 24.5% as the two sides head out onto the pitch, but Wolves will be keen to turn that prediction on its head!

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

14:52

Vitor Pereira makes a single change for Wolves as new signing John Arias makes his full debut in old gold. The Colombian starts in central midfield, with the dropped Andre joined on the bench by another new signing in the form of Jackson Tchatchoua.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

14:52

Andoni Iraola names an unchanged side after Bournemouth’s strong performance at Anfield on the opening night, with Semenyo and David Brooks set to cause more problems from the flanks. Two new signings are included on the Cherries’ bench though, in Ben Gannon Doak and Amine Adli.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

14:47

WOLVES SUBS: Sam Johnstone, Hugo Bueno, Santiago Bueno, Andre, Hwang Hee-Chan, Yerson Mosquera, Rodrigo Gomes, Fer Lopez, Jackson Tchatchoua.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

14:47

WOLVES (3-4-3): Jose Sa; Matt Doherty, Emmanuel Agbadou, Toti Gomes; Ki-Jana Hoever, Jhon Arias, Joao Gomes, David Moller Wolfe; Marshall Munetsi, Jorgen Strand Larsen, Jean-Ricner Bellegarde.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

14:47

BOURNEMOUTH SUBS: Will Dennis, Julian Araujo, Ryan Christie, Ben Gannon Doak, Amine Adli, Justin Kluivert, Julio Soler, Eli Kroupi, James Hill.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

14:47

BOURNEMOUTH (4-1-4-1): Djordje Petrovic; Adam Smith, Bafode Diakite, Marcos Senesi, Adrien Truffert; Tyler Adams; Antoine Semenyo, Alex Scott, Marcus Tavernier, David Brooks; Evanilson.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

14:41

West Ham’s 5-1 loss at home to Chelsea has lifted Wolves up to 19th place on goal difference, but Vitor Pereira still needs a big response from his side after they were hammered 4-0 at home by Manchester City last weekend. Wolves also failed to win any of their six pre-season matches, and will be keen to get that first victory chalked onto the board as soon as possible.

AFC Bournemouth vs Wolverhampton Wanderers

14:36

The Cherries’ season got off to a losing start in an end-to-end 4-2 loss to defending champions Liverpool in the first match of the new campaign, but Antoine Semenyo’s second-half brace will give Andoni Iraola hope that his team can bounce back immediately against a Wolves side who were rock-bottom of the table after matchweek one.
