HT: Newcastle 0-0 Wolves
Newcastle will feel they should be ahead after Miguel Almiron struck the post - just before Allan Saint-Maximin's goal was ruled out by the offside flag.
Wolves grew into the game as the first-half went on - with Adama Traore being their biggest threat - notably hitting the post with his headed effort.

Team news - Newcastle
Federicoo Fernandez has fully recovered from his thigh injury, but it is thought tomorrow's game will come too soon for him.
Wolves seeking a third straight win
Wolves have won both of their games this month, dispatching of Southampton and Leeds.
A win on Tyneside tomorrow night could see the West Midlands club move within just four points of the European places.
Newcastle looking to ease those relegation jitters
A win against an in-form Wolves side, however, would see Steve Bruce's side potentially leapfrog fellow strugglers Brighton into 16th place.
Kick-off time
The kick-off is scheduled at 20:00 BST.
