Wolves boss Gary O'Neil admits he asked the Premier League to move their clash with Everton due to player workload concerns.
Wolves still managed to win 3-0 yesterday.
"I'm risking players getting injured by asking them to go again," said O'Neil.
"The league are always fine, there's normally reason why they can't do it.
"They were open to listening to what I spoke about and they looked into it as much as they could but said it was, unfortunately, not possible.
"Three games in six days is tough. You are always playing with someone hurting or not fully recovered.
"It's excessive, to expect them to be at the level they are supposed to be at."
