Both of these clubs finished seventh in their respective leagues last season. Only champions Juventus lost less games than Torino last season but unlike the league winners, Torino drew 15 league games. Their seventh place qualified them for the Europa League and this is their first time back in this competition since the 2014/15 season. They have had two straightforward ties so far with a 7-1 aggregate win over Debrecen and 6-1 over Shakhytor Soligorsk. Needless to say a tie with English Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers is going to be a lot tougher than their previous opponents. Torino won 12 home league games last season and have no losses in their last eight on home soil. 

Wolves qualified for the Europa League thanks to the domestic treble achieved by Manchester City. That meant seventh place in the Premier League was good enough to qualify them for Europe, It's their first time in European competition since 1981. They have so far beaten Crusaders and FC Pyunik with relative ease, especially the latter. The only problem they have really encountered was when going 1-0 down away at Crusaders before winning 2-1. It's been a busy schedule for Wolves, busier than their opponents who haven't started their league season yet. Wolves played Manchester United on Monday and have drawn both  of their Premier League games so far. This is their toughest game and coming so soon after Monday's game, the tip is for a home win.
