Doherty a prime card candidate if he starts
Edwards will be forced into a defensive reshuffle for this game given that centre back Yerson Mosquera is suspended after picking up another booking against West Ham.
There are a few ways the Wolves boss could change things – he may even dare to go with a back four – but there is a chance Doherty could be in line for a rare start for the West Midlanders.
Doherty is expected to be back from a knock for this game, and if he starts he could be a worthwhile bet at 7/2 to be carded.
The 34-year-old defender has picked up four cautions in just 708 minutes of Premier League football this season and has averaged 1.6 fouls per game in the top flight.
If he features, he is likely to play on the right side of the back three, meaning he could have to deal with the runs of Gabriel Gudmundsson, who impressed against Manchester United and draws an average of 1.7 fouls per game in the league.
Referee Tim Robinson has averaged four cards per game in the Premier League this season, rising to five cards per game in the Championship, so is unlikely to hold back if Doherty is drawn into some bad challenges.
Note that with Sky Bet, your punt on a player is only voided if they do not start and play no part in the game, but it will stand if they do not begin but feature at any point.
With that in mind, cashing out on this wager is advised if Doherty is not in the starting lineup and the cashout value has not been affected.
