Bakary Sako and Nouha Dicko have rattled in all the last nine goals scored in the last three games as Wolves made history by winning nine in a row.

Sako is now one only behind the departed Leigh Griffiths as the club's 13-goal top scorer while Dicko has smashed seven in eight games since his £300,000 move from Wigan in January.

Left-back Scott Golbourne believes the pair's influence is going to continue to be vital in the run-in.

"They're on the same wavelength and have good link-up play," said Golbourne.

"That could be massive for us going into the end of the season.

"They've gelled really well and they both speak French, which helps.

"They're chatting away together all the time so I think they've both been good for each other.

"The forward players are doing really well at the moment."
