The Story in 60 Seconds

Wolves manager Cesar Peixoto has backed striker Adam Armstrong to help resolve the team's scoring struggles ahead of Saturday's Championship clash with Cardiff. Armstrong ended a two-month goal drought by scoring the winner in last weekend's 1-0 victory over Watford, lifting Wolves to fourth place in the table.

Wolves have seen their output drop to seven goals in their last seven league games after scoring 13 in their opening five. Armstrong will lead the attack as fellow striker Raul Jimenez remains sidelined until January following knee surgery.
