They have beaten Chelsea and Newcastle already this month ahead of Bournemouth’s visit.Victory over the Cherries would secure Wolves three consecutive top-flight wins for the first time since March 1980.“We know how hard it is to get back-to-back wins and we want to continue. We have to be ready for it,” said Nuno.“It’s a tough challenge we face, what is important is that we are ready for tomorrow. “I have the big picture of Eddie Howe, he is really good but we just have to see how Bournemouth play, analyse and they are a very good team.“It’s about taking the right decisions for the games. The games last 95 minutes so we have to look at all the game and be ready to respond to all the questions.“Everybody has to be involved. We’re approaching it game by game. Bournemouth are a very good team, Eddie Howe’s work is fantastic and it’s a very tough challenge.”Raul Jimenez is expected to return after being dropped to the bench for the win at Newcastle last Sunday.4
