Rob Edwards has named his Wolves side to face Aston Villa - as he looks to cause an upset and deliver Wolves' first Premier League win of the season.

The new Wolves head coach oversaw his first game in charge last week - as his side slipped to their latest defeat at home to Crystal Palace.

Edwards hinted that he may mix things up for the clash against Aston Villa - and he has opted for three changes with one surprise name not in the squad.

Ladislav Krejci, who has been a regular since his summer arrival and has been one of the small positives in Wolves' dismal start to the season - was not named in the matchday squad.

It has been confirmed the summer signing is out with an injury, and the defender is replaced at the back by Yerson Mosquera.

Elsewhere, Jean-Ricner Bellegarde comes into midfield in place of Marshall Munetsi, while Tolu Arokodare misses out in place of Jhon Arias.

Another summer signing Fer Lopez is also not named in the squad due to an injury issue.

Wolves: Johnstone, Tchatchoua, Agbadou, Mosquera, Toti, Wolfe, Andre, Gomes, Bellgardre, Arias, Strand-Larsen

Subs: Sa, H Bueno, S Buneo, Munesti, Hwang, Arokodare, Chirewa, Hoever, Mane
