Another three-game week will factor into his thinking, though, with more rotation expected in next Wednesday’s League Cup trip to Fleetwood Town before attentions turn back to the Championship campaign.
But who should get the nod against one of the division’s fancied sides? We’ve picked the XI we believe could give United the best chance of getting a result, with a blend of experience, energy and attacking threat.
There are places for some of the key performers from the opening weeks of the campaign, while the shape could get the best out of United’s players.
Scroll through our gallery below to see our predicted team and the thinking behind each selection - is this the XI you’d go with or would you go with something different?
9. Romelle Donovan
A lively option on the right who can provide pace and direct running. Could be useful in testing Wolves’ full-back on the counter-attack, and doesn’t shirk his defensive responsibilities either | ugc
10. Ben Brereton Diaz
Gets the nod on the left, where his physicality, work-rate and willingness to attack the box could cause Wolves problems. Also gives United another serious goal threat | ugc
11. Tom Cannon
Has earned his place after his strong start to the season. He’ll be looking for his fourth goal and will be United’s main focal point in attack, just edging out Bamford in this shape who had a knee issue in midweek | ugc
