    Peixoto: 'It's important to keep winning points'

    Wolves boss Cesar Peixoto declared himself pleased with his side's performance as they earned their first league win of the season.

    Fer Lopez's double and a goal from substitute Adam Armstrong saw Wolves end their 489-day wait for a win on the road as they beat Preston 3-1 at Deepdale.

    Peixoto told BBC Radio WM: "I'm happy with the performance, in the first half more difficult, a little bit more difficult, but we have the best chances.

    "In the second half we managed well the pressure of the opponent and we played like I want with the ball - attract the team and expose the spaces.

    "I think we can score more. I'm a little angry because we concede one goal and I don't want to concede one goal, I want a clean sheet. It's normal. But it was a good game for us.

    "Congratulations for the players, thank you to our supporters because you help us to win these three points. A lot of people came to support the team. It's very important we stay together. The Championship is very tough and we need all the people around us to support and we need three points."

    Wolverhampton Wanderers goalkeeper Jose Sa is expected to be in the side for their game against Preston North End on Saturday (15:00 BST).

    The Portugal international, who has made 170 appearances for the club since signing in 2021, did not feature in either their opening day draw with Blackburn Rovers or their EFL Cup victory over Port Vale.

    Dan Bentley had been favoured, however, the Englishman has since joined Coventry City, while fellow keeper Sam Johnstone is recovering from a shoulder injury.

    Though boss Cesar Peixoto is expected to bring in a new goalkeeper before the end of the transfer window.

    "Sa came later from the World Cup, Sam has a long injury and we need to find one solution more to the goalkeeper [situation]," he told BBC Radio WM.

    The game against Preston could also see a debut for new signing Jordan James.

    The midfielder joined on loan on Thursday and his experience with Leicester City last season could mean he has a quick introduction to the side.

    "I think it's very important [with James' experience] because the adaptation to the Championship is fast," Peixoto said.

    "He's a player who wants to improve and help us to a good season."
