Team News: Bryan Ruiz starts for Fulham against Wolverhampton Wanderers

Bryan Ruiz makes his first Fulham start since Boxing Day in their Championship clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux.

Bryan Ruiz has been named in the Fulham starting lineup for the first time since Boxing Day ahead of their Championship clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers this evening.

The Costa Rica international was on the verge of leaving the club during the January transfer window, only to see a proposed move to Levante blocked by FIFA.

He is one of two changes from Kit Symons, with Seko Fofana also being drafted in as Scott Parker and Alexander Kacaniklic drop to the bench.

Wolves, meanwhile, make just one change as they look to close the gap on the playoff places, with Jack Price returning to the starting lineup in place of James Henry.

In-form striker Benik Afobe once again leads the line alongside Nouha Dicko and Bakary Sako, all of whom scored in the 5-0 thrashing of Rotherham United on Saturday.

Wolves: Kuszczak; Iorfa, Batth, Stearman, Golbourne; McDonald, Price, Edwards, Sako; Afobe, Dicko
Subs: Flatt, Doherty, Henry, van La Parra, Doyle, Ebanks-Landell, Hause

Fulham: Bettinelli; Richards, Hutchinson, Bodurov, Stafylidis; Tunnicliffe, Christensen, Fofana, Ruiz; Rodallega, McCormack
Subs: Kiraly, Burn, Hoogland, Kavanagh, Parker, Kacaniklic, Woodrow
