Arokodare has made four appearances for Wolves this ongoing season and is yet to register a goal for his club.
Interestingly, Wolves are preparing for their first trip to Sunderland since suffering a 3-0 defeat in the Championship in May 2018. In fact, the Old Gold have only won one of their last 10 away league encounters at the Stadium of Light, a 3-1 Premier League victory in May 2011 under former boss Mick McCarthy.
Wolves have not lost any of their last three games in all competitions (W1 D2) since Pereira switched from a back five to a four-man defence, so the Portuguese will likely stick with the same system this weekend.
