Wolverhampton Wanderers are in pole position to qualify for the group stages of the Europa League. They have had a hectic schedule over the past few weeks with five Europa League qualifiers and three Premier League matches. The good news is that Wolves haven't lost any of those matches. The bad news is their three Premier League matches have all ended in draws and they are in the bottom half of the table. Wolves have won all five of their Europa League games. They had comfortable wins over Crusaders and Pyunik and then traveled to Italy last week to take on Torino. They won that game 3-2 and will be a bit upset at conceding a late goal that saw them return home with only a one-goal advantage. They will have had an extra day to prepare for this second leg, compared to last week when playing on Monday and then Thursday.

Torino go into this game knowing they have to score at least twice to have any chance of progressing. They got their Serie A campaign off to a winning start with a 2-1 home win over Sassuolo. Their previous games in the Europa League had resulted in three wins and a draw scoring 13 goals. Away form isn't promising though and they have only won two of their last 13 Serie A league games and were held to a 1-1 draw in this competition by Shakhytor.  This should be an open game with Torino needing goals to stay alive, go for over 2.5 goals to be scored in this match.
