With the hosts hunting an equaliser, Marcelo Bielsa hoped the introduction of young Joe Gelhardt might provide the necessary spark.

Referee Robert Jones pointed to the spot and Rodrigo made no mistake.

Wolves are seventh in the Premier League table with 46 points.

With back to back wins against relegation-threatened sides, Bruno Lage's side have recovered from a run of three defeats on the bounce at the end of last month.

Last time out, the Midlands side claimed a 1-0 away win against Everton, with Conor Coady's 49th-minute header the decider at the final whistle.
