Wolves 3 Preston 2: Tim Spiers and Nathan Judah analysis - VIDEO

Wolves took the lead just before half time when Ivan Cavaleiro turned home a Barry Douglas pass.

Then Bonatini scored twice in three minutes around the hour mark, notching a penalty after Matt Doherty was fouled and then tapping home from close range.

But Preston, who were the better team in the first half, responded with a Jordan Hugill header and a Conor Coady own goal to make it 3-2 going into the closing stages.

However Wolves clung on during nine minutes of stoppage time, during which Preston's Alan Browne was sent off for two bookings.
